Unless you just want out of the car via an easy purchase from insurance, 100% buy it back.

I think you will either make more by selling it or enjoy keeping it. Idk if I'd be able to get over the hail damage easily but screw it. When you're moving, who's going to notice?

Why not buy good used hood, trunk, doors, fenders, then get body work done on quarter panels? Not just bondo, but actually pulling of the dents.

Then a paint job. Then sell the dented stuff to track guys that don't need prestine stuff.

Is this a strategy to buy a hail damaged car on the cheap?

And a matte finish at that. Probably won't be able to tell.
