ive got at least 30 band new dints across my boot lid, roof and bonnet :cray:

i saw 5 cars with broken windows and the bosses 200sx is routed.

can the dints be sucked back out? the paint isnt actually broken.

sounds like we were lucky not to get it.
makes me wanna invest in another car port.

It hit hard here. This is the view from my front window before

My EA is over at Kev's at the moment so I'm unsure how bad it was over there. My housemate's Daewoo unfortunately seems to have missed out on damage though

we got hit hard here (boronia) cars are still wet so unsure on damage. guessing my ute will have damage and same deal with the missus el ghia. awesome :-(

I'm more concerned about my washing than the car!

Rain = wash
Hail = cut 'n' polish

Check your PDS. All the big companies have one on their website.

If you've got full comp you should be fine

by **needfordspeed** » March 6th, 2010, 9:14 pm

I have some pics of the hail stones on my phone.. will post later.

by **rhys** » March 6th, 2010, 10:39 pm

did anyone else notice that commodores must have shit rear windows? I noticed 5 today all with their rear windows broken. My car was at home and I was in my mums car but she was facing right in to the hail and would have copped and absolute hammering, not so much as a crack on her though.

to bad the bodywork isnt as tough

by **rhys** » March 6th, 2010, 11:18 pm

not the biggest but this was the size once i got home ~30 mins after it finished. so they would have been bigger. but the sheer force of these fuckers :evil:

ill see if i can show actual damage tomorrow, can really only see if its dry.
