Default Hail Damage

Just curious to see if anyone got hit by the bad weather in the area. I know alot of places got some pretty bad hail, some the size of golf balls. I have a few friends in Wilmington DE area that have bad damage, and also out by Reading/Allentown area.

I'm hoping no one on here got hit with it, and no s2k's were hit.

Unfortunately my s2k got hit bad, dents on all panels, cracked windshield and tore the soft top too. Insurance will take care of it. Refer me some good body shops and I might use Jeremy for a new soft top. Sad day...

I'm so sorry! That completely blows. Not sure where you are located, I'm in West Chester, thankfully we were spared car damage. We had hail, but the cars were inside, and I don't think our roof is damaged on the house.

I used to work at Cavallo Auto Body, and would take my car there. Another good place in West Chester is Classic Coachworks, they're on Westtown road between Market and Gay streets just before you get into the town of West Chester. If it were my car I'd take it to Cavallo's in Chadds Ford/Glen Mills. They're right off route 202. CJ and Spencer are the guys there.

I'd def put it through insurance as comprehensive claims are not chargable.

Mine escaped without damage. Sucks for those that didn't. I'm sure next week is going to be crazy at the bodyshop I work at......

So here she is getting an estimate for damage. Not totaled but $7k in damage. Replace hood, top, windshield, trunk and PDR a lot of dents. Thank God for insurance.[attachment=59758:image.jpg]
