Replacement Parts For an 05 Mazda Rx8 GT

The insurance people said that i have totaled my car, but they are letting me have time to see if i want to fix my car, so i am taking the chance to find new parts. The main thing i need is a roof and the bar that holds the roof.
My main question is if any of you guys know anyone that totaled there rx8 and is getting it to the junk yard or giving it up i am willing to buy. I have some decent pictures for you guys to see.

Whoa...glad your okay. What happened? From the look of it, just junk it and get another rx8 for replacement. Good luck whichever you choose.

It's dead, Jim. I don't mean any offense to this, but based on your posting history on this board, this isn't something you should try to fix yourself.

The insurance company would be irresponsible if they let that car back on the road. The roof plays more of a role in an 8's structural integrity than you might imagine.

How did you manage to do that? I take it nobody was hurt...which is the part that matters.

Your car looks like it either got hit by a raised truck, a bus, or a motorcycle.
Either that, or you slid sideways into a tree.

Anyway you look at it:
Stick a fork in it, its done.
