So my rx7 got dmg in the plane crash in south fL

Had a plane crash at my work where my car is being stored. The plane exploded about 30 feet from where I was standing. Big pice of the wing got lodged under my car. Haven't even been able to go and see how bad the dmg is and I'm a bit freaked out to go back to work. I know it's a weird post but its helping me cope a lil to just talk about it.
