Thread: Hail Damage

I bought a 2000 Grand Prix GT and before i bought it there was a storm that rolled through and the car suffered hail damage. The damage is mostly on the hood, roof, and trunk. Is there any way for me to do this cheaply or is it just best to take it in to get it done right?

Yeah i was planin on gettin a different hood anyway cause mine has a couple rock chips and is probly ready to start rusting. The only thing i was worried was not being able to get the same color due to the sun fading the paint and i dont really wanna go and pain the whole car yet either.

get the roof PDR'd (Paintless Dent repair) there are mobile ones who will come too you.

i vote new hood and decklikd, PDR can only get out little dents, how big was the hail?

that is not true, PDR can get out all kinds of different dents, it depends on how well the metal wants to work with you.

You could have a HUGE dent in the roof from like a basketball being dropped on it and pressing on it in the right spot will pop it right out.

Im not sure of the actual size of the hail itself. It happened this past summer with one of those big storms that rolled through. The dents themselves are relatively small. Most of which are less than the size of a quarter. The roof does have hail damage but due to the fact that i have a sunroof, it wasnt damaged that bad. The trunk i will just leave for now because it is not bad.
