Any way to share the work on what was done?
I just had my car fixed after a fender-bender in April. (See photos) The main piece that was replaced was the front valence. The vast (vast) majority of the $12k bill was for labor and paint as the whole front end needed to come apart "to do it correctly." Paint the hood, the underside of the hood, head light buckets, remove all the wiring, replace the wiring, use correct zip ties/location, apply "correct" factory over-spray, front and side marker light....etc. The shop I took it to was VERY thorough and I was surprised at how much work a slight smoosh created.
20k is reasonable depending on the quality shop and the amount of damage. The "salvage" title designation is worrisome (My CarFax shows "Minor accident and it KILLS ME) but if the repair was quality and you plan on keeping the car, you may want to take a hard look.
In any event.... INSPECT IN PERSON PLEASE!!!!
