Angry That Efing Hail

had my car parked in o'hares garage but the hail the other night must have come in at an angle and now i have a few dents in my hood.

i'm guessing there's going to be a deductible so now i have a few options.
  1. pay deductible and have someone fix it
  2. find oem hood replacement (prolly cheaper than the deductible idk)
  3. time for an upgrade anyway... aftermarket action

now i turn to you... what would you do? if you go with upgrade to aftermarket, where in chicago are there some good places to shop for hoods? or stick to only buying? meh

1. if its covered under comprehensive there likely won't be a deductible.

It depends....

are you looking to track it or wanna more aggressive look? Then maybe losing the weight or the cf look is for you (esp with vents).

If not, then I'd say no.

You can always paint the cf to match if you want to drop the weight/vents but don't like the cf look. check out the pics area and get some ideas.
