damn this crazy new york weather !!!!!!

so yesterday i came home from work and fell asleep on the couch. about an hour later i wake up to a loud banging noise at my window, so i get up to see what was going on and i saw what i thought were rocks falling from the sky. A hail and rain storm like i never seen before. it lasted for about 10 minutes, the whole time its happening i'm telling my girlfriend that my car is getting wrecked, she tells me relax i'm sure nothing will happen. so i soon as it stops i run outside and dry off my car. i find about 30 to 40 dings from my trunk to my hood. i will try to post pics tomorrow..what the hell am i going to do to fix this. sorry for the long write up i just know this is the only place that will understand my heart brokenness over my tl being messed up.

You are right, there was hail yesterday. I couldn't believe my eyes. My windows and roof was making a banging noise. Lucky I was home from work already and my baby was safely in the garage. Sorry to hear the damage. Lately NYC has been getting the craziest rain storms.

they dont cover hail damage??? wtf that sux man, maybe try paintless dent removal, but it may get as expensive as just getting the car repainted with all the dents fixed
