Mother nature beat the hail outta my GT!!! There was a hail storm that was quoted as "the storm of the century" that put $5000 worth of dents in my 08 GT Mustang. Thank GOD for insurance!
I'd take pictures and show you but it is just too sad to show!!!

Oh that's terrible. I'm guessing you don't have a garage.

I have a garage but this type of thing NEVER happens in East Texas. And I was only 5 minutes from home and I didn't expect hail!
I should do a custom job now!

Sorry to hear about your car, we didn't get nearly that bad over here. A lot of rain and wind but no hail.

Well, that stinks.
I moan about insurance companies all the time, but it's nice to have the coverage when you need it.
Time to paint!
