$1000 Deductible?! WTF?! You a stunt-driver by profession?

I'd be calling the Paintless Dent Repair dude in your area and seeing what he wants for the job - my neighbor is a PDR guy and worked magic on the dent in the hatch on my Magnum.

I'd expect it be a lot less than a grand..

Gotta take into account that I have commercial auto insurance. It's not cheap in anyway. I chose the $1000 deductible when I filed the policy...just forgot about it until now. $1000 vs. $500 deductible made almost $1000/year difference on my rate.

I checked around with a few of the paintless dent repair shops in town..all the rough estimates were in the $800-$1200 market.

That's about a 22 hour drive away .. thanks for the offer though.

Now that I've had a day to cool down about the damage it's not terrible. I'll probably pull the headliner out for a few days and just work the dents in the roof out. Not even going to bother with the ones in the hood.

To make matters worse went by my shop today to find that there was extensive water damage both through soil erosion and flooding of the garage. This storm sure sucked.
