HOLY COW! I'd go to a dealer. If that's a 2010, you might as well have them put the 2011 windshield in...just in case you wanna install HUD later on.
Good luck.

Oooh. Sorry to see that. I feel your pain. I left my Camaro home in the garage today as I dropped my wife's car off for service. At 2:30 in the afternoon, that same storm hit where I work. If I had my Camaro today, I would be in the same boat. There are a lot of paintless dent removal places in the valley.
Good luck! |

Wow
That looks exactly how bad my damage was, but harder to see on yellow. Happened at I-10 and about 45th ave. I am still waiting for the writeup on the claim. Not a candidate for paintless dent removal. Estimated at 12-14k damage, but will wait and see. Hopefully I will find out monday. But I think I will switch to aftermarket carbon fiber hood and trunk with painted stripes. How much was your claim?

So far $8800....PDR left front and rear quarter panels. Replace windshield, hood, roof and trunk. Will have stripes painted. I will still be a week or more. I will post picks after she comes home. Gieco has been surprisingly terrific. Original estimate by Gieco was $5500. Van Chevy said $8800 and Gieco said no problem. Now lets just hope Van does a good job. Had many positive comments about them.

I have always worried about something like that happening. But, I have never seen anything so bad. Sorry, I know you have to be sick over that. Hope you get it fixed soon.

That's beyond the dent doctor. Your talking some body work.
