I had a two month old Camry get hit while parked in a parking lot. Guy ran but was caught on security cameras (he was obviously drunk). My car had frame damage. I didn't want to drive around in a car that suffered frame damage, so I decided to get a new car. The adjuster gave me the different between what I got on the trade-in and the retail value -- approximately $4,500.

I got rear-ended in a WRX with 4k miles in 2003. 11k worth of damage but still wasn't totaled, they offered 700 dollars in loss of value 
THEN told me the option was to have another appraiser look at it (of THEIR choice) and if it was lower than thats what i would get.
Lesson being I should have gotten a lawyer. Now yours isn't as serious but just a heads up they probably won't play ball.
