Default F@#$%n Hail...

Storm rolled through and I had both my wifes 00 Montana and my 00 GMC at a friends house and it rained like 2" in 8 minutes then the hail came. Pummeled the vehicles with golfball size hail for 2 minutes then the sun came out. Hood and roof are damaged on both vehicles. It was awesome to watch though.
I need to get some estimates for the insurance co. so it looks like they will both be in the shop.

Check with a good PDR vendor - paintless dent
Dentsmart is a very good vendor - I have used them alot.

There are like 100 dents in the roof & hood, I think I would rather have it fixed at the body shop. They are not real deep but there are a lot.

I wouldnt.
PDR retains your factory paint and factory panels.
Your choice

I have a friend that has a 2004 silverado and his truck got nailed in a big azz hail storm here in Texas. He took to a paintless dent removal and they made it look like new without a single dent.

A good PDR vendor will be able to tell you what they can get out
and what should be repaired conventionally.
