Sorry to hear about your accident, wow. Judging by your damage it appears you hit the rail obliquely, the airbags will not deploy under that angle of impact. The crash sensors need direct hard impact energy to deploy, like total head-on with a hard object or car, sideways you need to be t-boned right into the door.
