but on a serious note, if they do try to total it.. Find some comparable cars listed for sell and try to bump up the offer that they try to give you. Then when its all said and done. Just ask how much to buy it back.
Example:
if they say all its worth is $15,000
and buy back it $3000
then they will cut you a check for $12,000

That first photo looks like something out a movie. We had some hail the other night, but not nearly as big as that. The best of luck and keep us posted on what you end up doing.

It would have warned you about the day hours in advance.
It would have warned you about the specific storm 30 minutes prior.
And it would have prevented the damage with the press of a button.
All for about $300.

You might want to check into these guys-
http://dentct.com/
or some other outfit that specializes in hail damage (I would look for one that (1) had been in business a long time, and (2) was a national franchise operation with proprietary techniques. I would also look to find customer feedbacks/complaints).
I had a mindless incident where I dropped the hood on one of my cars with a wrench still sitting on the engine. A single ugly "zit" which wasn't nearly as rounded as your dimples are. Now I could tell you were it had been and you'd never spot it.

I did check PDR....there's just too much

Anyways, it looks like I won't be going back to a 996 NA. Thinking of cayman, boxster(not really a convert guy, I think I had the top down once in my old 986s) or another 996 turbo.

I'll have a eibach rear sway bar, fabspeed supercup's(version 2), speedtech 200 cells(version 1) and nhp x51(maxspeedmotorsports) headers for sale soon.
