Is it illegal to take the check and buy something else less expensive? I assumed if once they paid out their end is done and whatever I do with the money was my own concern.

No it's not. They look at the car and write a check. You take it and do what you want with it.
My fender bender was fixed by me. After new quarter, paint, and some pop rivets I was done with money left over. An accident was an accident with no said dollar amount (maybe if it was over 10k or something higher) so either way for the next three years I'm paying $238 more a half. That's $1428 I'm outta pocket (accident was more so i was better to claim it than pay cash). So take all you can because if its only $238 a half whether they pay you $10 or $10,000, why not get some money back you've paid them since 16?
PS I have some nice RPF1's for you!! Only $1225. Should be able to pocket about $4-5k.
