Tell the insurance company you plan on also pursuing diminished value. Diminished value + the cost of the repair might make them reconsider and total the car. I've seen it happen before...

I don't get why that would be the case. Wouldn't the diminished value claim be against the other drivers insurance. If someone crashed into you you would pursue their insurance company for loss of value. If you hit a tree, you can't pursue your own insurance company for loss of value I don't think.
