It really depends who fixes it. I have seen some pretty messed up cars look better after the repair than before the accident. This one auto body place I frequent has a frame machine that uses lasers and magnetic sensors to pull the car back into spec and most times its better than factory tolerances. Sometimes they just check cars to see how bad they were FROM the factory. Its pretty amazing....
