Default hail damage

My car was caught out in a hailstorm,I could not make it outside to cover it or find cover.I have an adjuster coming out soon,what do you guys think the insurance company will do?the hood,roof,and entire drivers side got nailed.the images don't show the extent of the damage the camera could not seem to get it right.

Ouch... Who's your insurance company? For the most part, you will be made whole... start researching for a good body shop now... maybe time for some painted stripes?

Damn, those were big hails.
On the bright side, you'll get to have to replace your hood with a better one.
Looks like around $3K to 4K in damage.

F*** me dead! That's some serious hail.

Wow that sucks, that is like my biggest fear. Even though I own a garage it can still happen out of no where, hope you get it fixed.

yeah it started as rain and then started dropping those bad boys with nothing in between no warning... somebody I know lives about a mile west of me and it was shattering windshields.

I have nightmare's about this happening. Don't know if its true or not, but if the hail is bigger than a ping-pong ball...ur in deep (censored)!
F it, that's why you pay for full coverage...time for a face lift

Damn blue, that's terrible. Any plans for a new hood if there's room in the quote?
