sounds like a trip to the paintless dent repair shop!!! Been there done that in grapvine tx was out of town and my girls car got caught with softball size ruins a good trip real fast when you come home to that. Friend took pics of the hail size for me.

Sorry dude. Paintless dent repair can probably get it looking back good as new. Be sure and talk to them about drilling on the inside panels in order to get to the dents. I would try to get them to avoid doing that if possible.

Man, that sucks to hear. I can feel your pain having a big dent in my door from road debris. Dent repair has come along ways and I am sure they will make it good as new. Still makes you sick to see the damage.

The good side is I am getting a new roof on the house. It was getting ready to need one in the next few years. Also had just put my rv trailer away the night before after camping over Memorial Day weekend.

Have had the paintless dent removal done in the past with pretty good success. Comes with living in this part of the country.

:cool2: Thanks Jhn, I've started shopping for one. Might as well make the best out of a bad situation. I'll also be able to get rid of that 'Totally Stock for Now' comment in my sig.
