hail sucks

I'm friggen pissed! Quarter sized hail in Minneapolis 30 minutes ago. Anyone else get hit? $1000 deductible.... 40-50 dents.... wheee!

 

I was driving through past downtown on 35w when it hit. People were stopping under the bridges, not even pulling over to the shoulder. Personally, I'd rather get hail damage than rear-ended, but that's just me. I got hit with a lot of hail, but I haven't really inspected to see if there's any dents. I've got a $1k deductible too, so I won't even bother reporting on my old car.

 

what???? better not come north to blaine, my car is outside here at work. :eek4:

 

It must have missed St. Paul because I was doing my laundry there. My car is shiny in Blaine.

 

your kidding!?! Hail! it only Stormed like 5 mins here...Mostly wind, sorry to hear that guys...

 

I agree with what you say. There are definately worse things to get pissed about. I'm not typically anal about dents and dings but this looks really bad.

Is paintless dent removal a cost effective option? My guess is the hood is a throw away.

 

in Cottage Grove we had pea size hail and heavy rain, I was outside at work when it started to rain, so we put all of the go karts away and we were leaning on the door which is steel and lightning struck about 100ft. away from us and we all got shocked by the lightning.

 

Wow, I just missed it. I left work at 5pm and headed north... I saw it coming from the west, it looked pretty intense.

 

i'm in st. paul, so hail here but very heavy rain! car still as good as ever!

 

looks like we are up for a paintless dent removal group buy....hollow justin, he knows where to get da hookups!!

 

If you guys do the paintless dent removal group count me in

 

ohh that sucks ass, new custom paint!!!

 

Thats a major bummer. THat happend to my last car like a week after I got it. Up here in CR we only got wind. no rain or hail

 

Want to know what else sucks?

working at a grocery store when the power goes out for two hours=chaos

I hope we didn't get hail here... hope the car is ok

 

We were at work when it hit. Makes me glad I pay to park in a garage!

 

I lucked out,

Drove the SVX in for the first time and I got off work and north of it. Just had rain. Feel bad for ya with the 1000 deduc thou, that sucks.

 

whoa, i left work yesterday a little early.
5 min after i pull out of the lot we get golfball sized hail.

true golfball size...
4 cars and the shop van got hammered............

i'm lucky, i have been driving the boss's truck.
i'm sure he will have had me killed if anything happens to it.

 

So I must have missed the bigger hail on my drive home. I can't really see any damage to my car. Having a steel hood makes a difference too I'm sure.

It was pretty strong for a while there, I was sitting on Hiawatha on the bridge that goes over lake street, the rain was coming sideways hard enough to be leaking past my driver's side windows, that usually only happens in the car wash.

 

Thanks for the responses guys. I called Ryan Novak at Finishing Touch and he is going to come by today or tommorrow and do an estimate for paintless dent repair. I plan on having that done to all the panels except the hood (which I will replace) Anyone have a WRB hood lying around?

*cough* time for carbon hood* cough*

 

yeah i got to drive in the nice golf ball hail to had to pick up the women downtown at 530 but luckily just got only couple of dents

 

I think that's the guy who hosted the group buy, very cool guy...is all the way in woodbury right?
