^^^Agreed- don't know much about it, where it was fixed, etc. Like my truck (had a custom shop fix it and you really cannot tell it was ever in an accident) except for the rear bumper. He couldn't find a new Mazda bumper so had to put a new Ford Ranger bumper on it.
My frame was bent downward in the rear but he was able to fix it with no issues.
$4K for mine fix.

I'd be willing to bet the body shop found support structure damge and decided not to fix it. If the roof bent down that far then the pillars HAVE to be damaged and you coudln't pay me to drive a car with a repaired support structure.
