Today sucked balls cause of a f***in Hail storm. s14 got beat to piss by ice the size of ping pong balls. while im at it does anyone know of a good? product for small dent removal like hail damage. Or am i stuck break the wallet out for a body shop to try and fix this shizblah. I ll get pics of it as soon as i can. it got a hella beat.

That sucks man. I had nightmares about hail the last time I was in Texas, my cousin's car got f--ed up by hail (golf ball size). I think a bodyshop would be able to do a better job than any kind of kit, good luck.

we had a bad thunderstorm one time with some hail in it the other month. my friend had one of those dent poppers off of TV and used it on his CRX and they came out fine...don't know if you want to take that route .... i wouldnt. good luck though.

insurance?

you can get them most smaller hail dents out with a high speed buffer but you need to be careful not to burn the paint while you are doing it
