Horrendous day...370z obliterated by hail

Last time I checked (been a while), the insurance company is buying the car as-is. All you get are your personal effects. But you may be able to work something

Last time I checked (been a while), the insurance company is buying the car as-is. All you get are your personal effects. But you may be able to work something out with them (eg, swapping back to original system). They'll never say yes if you don't ask.

This is what I gathered. As soon as I get to talk to the adjuster I'll see if we can work something out. I have the factory speakers/HU sitting in a box in my workshop.

So sorry to see.

Even the steel rear fenders appear to be as damaged as the front aluminum parts. Holy Toledo. I see another car with it's glass blown out too.

I agree about totaled. Still I hope somebody repairs the damage and drives a straight framed 370Z.

Every car in the lot had cracked windshields or blown out rear windows...except for the Xterra parked next to me. Besides a cracked side mirror that thing didn't even have a single mark on it. Not...a...single...mark.
