My hood, roof, passenger side all got dinged up pretty bad by some large *** pieces of hail.

My hood is toast but the roof, pass door and C pillar are salvagable. Anyone ever popped hail dents out before? Any tricks that could help? My bud has a dent puller that I thinks heats up the area and then you pull the dent, hope it works.

My car was damn near perfect body wise and this is just a total bummer. The one month I don't have a garage to stick it in. Aghh!!

Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks.

 

ya dude i went through that crap last year. My car was pretty damn clean before that. Since i have the aluminum hood, it got jacked up bad. When i brought it to state farm to get it looked at, they said it was going to be totalled just by looking at the hood. The hood itself cost $1700 to replace, they said you couldn't even find it. My roof and sunroof wasn't damaged too bad, but thats the least of my worries. Good thing i am going vmount, so i am forced to get a new/vented hood. But ya what could you do, there is no way to stop a storm. All you could do is stick it in the garage. Good luck with everything

 

F ing hail, my car needed a paint job anyway (faded 89 red.... orangeish now...) But now I've got dents to deal with too! If you have any luck with that dent popper let me know, good luck!

 

damn that sucks about the hood. Mine is totalled too, I don't even have to have someone tell me that. I am thinking of just finding a n/a alum hood and painting it,

I will keep everyone posted if this dent remover works.

 

Dent remover probably will work. Might wanna check with your insurance company tho.

 

Go and ask a body shop. You wouldn't want to mess it up and put holes and lumps that looks like pimples all over your car.

 

Paintless dent repair, had golf ball sized hail out by my house last year, i think we had 20 some dents all over the car, pretty much ever body panel was dented. After the PDR it looked brand spanking new.
