If I can get it at a good angle it might show up.

They are a bunch of small ass dents all over the hood, roof and trunk.

Mother Nature...she can be a ******* bitch!

Sorry to hear about your car...hail damage is one my my biggest fears too. Luckily I park in a parking garage at work and in my garage at home, so my Balt's exposure to the elements is limited.

Get the insurance money, pay one of the Cobalt guys with a body shop some pocket change to do a dentless repair (maybe buy them a few beers before negotiating price), and the money left over, go to a salvage yard and find a turbo to slap on the car.

dude we could probably buy a dentless repair kit online somewhere as i have done body work and painted my last sunfire corvette red and molded the body kit. I could probably help you for sure if you need it.

There are paintless dent guys that chase hail storms. Try and find one pay him cash and pocket the rest from your insurance. My boy used to chase hail and he could make your car look like new.

Man that sucks Tony. The hail portion of the storm in Collin county missed me by about 2 miles to the north where they had reports of uo to softball size hail, ouch!
