Sorry to hear, Digi. Hope you get everything sorted out quickly and hassle-free :tiphat:

Hail damage sucks. Sorry to see that. :( :thumbsdown:

We had a huge hail storm a couple of years ago (for Phoenix, similar to what you just had) and it just had its way with every vehicle.

Luckily, no glass broke or cracked, but my SRT took some shots. I think it was estimated at $1700 to fix, so I just took the check and had them take my deductible out ($500).

I didn't get that damage fixed, but it wasn't as bad as yours.


I'm paranoid now when it storms w/cooler weather and the potential for hail. At least at work and home I'm in a covered garage. My route home now has overpasses that I can stop under, where as previously I had none.

Though, if it hit car dealerships, the prices will drop drastically on the hail damaged ones. :ugh2:

Thankful we don't get that here in PA

I thought the rule of thumb when it comes to damage with the roof is they total the car. I could be wrong tho.

Nope, on this car the roof is replaceable

I have full coverage on this car since it's my only ride, so they'll definitely cover it. I just hope they cut a big enough check to fix all the repairs. Last thing I want on my plate is out of pocket expenses.

exactly! i had to tell a coworker to come see that very dent.

:( good luck man

It was at a friend's house for his engagement party. Lots of guests with lots of cars parked on the street. One of the guys has a G37c parked along the cul de sac. Tail lights busted, deep dents, A-pillar cracked open, etc.

Wichita, KS. The storm spun off an EF1 near the airport, which is in the SW part of town. I was in the NE part of town (near 29th and Oliver) at the time of occurrence. Imagine not being able to see past the garage door. It was like a train was moving swiftly in front of us. It was a blur. They quickly closed the garage door, but the pressure was too great. Rain and hail seeped through from the super strong winds. I can only imaging the velocity of the hail stones traveling horizontally and blasting our cars. Our cars were literally shot peened.

Really sorry to see this! I was bummed out yesterday because of bird sh** on my car. I hope it all works out for you.

Thats terrible. Keep us updated! I need to hurry up and get another daily.

Cmike2780 05-21-2013 12:39 PM

This is just painful to look at. Don't worry bro, she'll be good as new in no time.

DIGItonium 05-21-2013 12:56 PM

Thanks, all. I'm quite thankful because the situation could've been worse. Not sure when my claim will be processed assuming resources are focused on OK. It's a sad situation over there.

I'll post pictures whenever the car gets fixed up. Nothing fancy... keeping things the same. I do have some water build up in one of my headlights though... slowly drying off :(
