3am hail storm FTL
-
I saw Nick's pictures on TCS just now. Looks pretty crazy, figured I'd pop over here to see how widespread it was.
Don't forget to check roof damage on the house!
-
my mom said we got baseball size hail at my house down by shanley. luckily we didnt get any damage, at least from what she was able to see.
-
I just went and looked and I couldn't tell because my car still had beaded water(guess a good wax job helps?) and everyone else had dry cars, but I looked and most of the cars had a few small dents but nothing too bad, most just had 3-5 dents on the hood and trunk areas.
-
damn just found a nice quarter sized dent on the roof of my car
plus about 10 dents on my hood.
-
I woke up at 3 am and thought nothing of it, I just sat up, closed my window because it was getting everything wet.
-
Well now that the car is dry it's a lot worse than I was originally seeing...damnit...
-
$1700 in damage on my STI.

State Farm is having a drive thru type setup next week so I don't even get to know the cost on mine til then. If it's in the $1000 range though they'll probably just total my car...

Then you got lucky. I'm still harvesting soybeans with a 235 John Deer Disc...
I had an ex girlfriend that got caught in a hail storm with her folks coming home from a fishing trip. Sounded like it was baseball + sized hail and it totally destroyed their pickup. One of her parents ended up with a lot of glass shrapnel, some in the eye IIRC. My ex had a divit on her thigh that was about the size of a softball (1/2" deep) that hadn't healed like 2 years after it had happened.

Have them total it, but the car back and put money in pocket.

Thats what I was planning if it comes to that.
Book is ~$5000, salvage title brings that down to $2500-3000 MAX. Damage is on hood, roof, both fenders, both doors. I'll take crappy pictures when I get home. Damn $500 deductible!

No dents at all in the cat, thick heavy american sheet metal FTW. Woke me up and I thought about driving it somewhere to get it underneath something but it was coming down real bad and I figured if it was going to be damaged it already was.

Hood? That is fiberglass. Is it cracked?
Remember that I do have a mint black SN95 hood sitting in the shed back home. Find me a mint hood and you can have this one.

getting my sti looked at tomorrow....got about ten dents in the hood, couple in the roof, one in the fender, one on the pillar above the doors.....probably going to be pretty expensive..
glad a friend of mine and his dad are certified to do PDR so i'll probably be making money on the deal anyways
