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.

I used to live in TX and seen hail size of grapefruits....They can do damage.

VERY VERY VERY sorry to see your car. Maybe its time for new body mods..

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.

This might win the "most painful thread to see" award.

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.
