On 3/2, I had a work meeting with my new boss. Needless to say it was cut short, with the entire staff and the rest of the customers at panera bread craming into their freezers as a nasty storm rolled through. Many tornado's where spawned from this storm around all of TN and AL, heard many reports of some area's getting hail up to 3"!! Crazy stuff, I am ok and very thankful. I think more so where we were it was straight line winds, but regardless we got a ton of hail!!

Took it to the estimator yesterday and it came out to around $3500. Lots of PDR but the hood and hardtop he said would be conventional repairs and repaint. I hope they just repaint the fenders too!!

Enjoy/join me in crying over the pics! Only panels not posted are the driver door and driver rear fender. The pictures didn't come out at all, but there is alot of spots on those area's too!!

What my car used to look like


What the parking lot and my boss's 7 serie BMW looked like when we got out of the freezer!! Yes, He has a lot of hail damage as well!


My poor Hardtop!!










Hood




Fender


Trunk


Thanks for looking!

 

Complete bummer!

Got my car in the garage before it got to my house. Here is a picture from neighbors yard. My house is between the storm and where this was taken.

 

oh wow, nuts!!

If I wouldn't have had a meeting in Mount Juliet, I would've been fine as there was zero hail where I live. But nooo, I had to go!!

 

You know, technically the dimples on a golf ball make it fly faster. Maybe you shaved some lap time.. See there is silver lining... of sorts..

 

Haha, Jeff (igottademo7 or 9) said the same thing lol

 

Sorry to hear about the S.... i would have seriously cried.


My S was in the Garage.. but i was driving down 24 in my wifes car when it hit downtown...

Thankfully i slammed on the brakes under an overpass and saved the car from damage... it was intense!

 

yea, it was a crazy couple hours

 

I video'd all of it, since I work/live in mj. Luckily no dmg for me though!

 

was at Providence

 

Yea I live in providence and work less than 2 miles away
