hail damaged

Man, this Monday when i got home from work, and about an hr later the storm hit. My Tsx got damaged on the roof, trunk, and the hood. My insurance gave a me check for $800 to fix it; plus my $500. You can't really see its unless looking at it very close. What should I do Fix it or use that money to buy new RSB and new exhaust (greddy EVO20?)

Get it fixed, its better for the long run, esp. when you want to sell it or trade it in. And who knows maybe some of the little dings might rust if the hail got thru the paint down to the metal. IMO.

Fix it, if you dont and you make another claim later they have a legal right to not fix your car...the next hail claim coudl be worse, you never know.

You down here in Central Florida? That was a heck of a storm we had come through last Monday. First good one of the year. They think a tornado touched down in Pine Hills. We were rehanging wire for hours. It was nuts!

Glad to hear you're going to get it fixed. If its just some hail dings PDR may be the place to go. Where did you wind up taking it?
