I hear you... i just saw a couple . Parked my car in the garage and didn't want to bother looking at it.

I mean we pay such close attention to protecting our cars by parking far away from others , and **** like this happens.

It hit Markham too. Good thing is that it seemed to have come from the north and since my driveway is on the south side of the house, most if not all of the hits on my car are from deflections off my house.

The outlying GTA/905 region got hit the worst.. Woodbridge, Richmond Hill, Markham, Pickering, etc. My beater has a million hail dimples on the roof.

Hey guys,

sorry to hear about the bad news. I have a home in Richmond Hill (Bayview and 16th Avenue). Both of the cars I have there are garaged so nothing was harmed.

Contact my buddy Anthony at 416-708-1911. He'll come to your house/work/anywhere and remove all the dents.

I had a HUGE dent the size of a soccer ball on the side of my CLS AMG the 2nd week I got the stupid thing. Some punk kid ran up to me while i was at the timmies drive thru at 16th and major mack (you know the ricer plaza) and knocked into the car on purpose at around midnight.

Anyway in the first 5 minutes he had already removed the dent completely in my eyes. Expecting him finish up I came outside to pay him. He ended up sitting there for about 2 hours tapping the dent until it was absolutely flawless to his eyes. Best 150 dollars I've ever spent in my life.

^ really? Is it the TD on bayview just north of major mac? I was driving on frank endean going north frantically looking for some shelter. Funny thing was as I turned east on farmstead there was this dude in a blue rx8 turning north on frank endean and we both looked at each other shaking our heads going OH ****!!!!! Every hailstone that hit my car felt like a stinging slap to my face

No hail storm here. I was at the NY side Niagara falls casino. My car was in the garage so didn't hit me... Oh...Niagara had it also.

I got caught in a hail storm while doing a winery tour in Niagara on the lake about 2 weeks ago. I called my insurance company and it is covered under comprehensive...just have to pay your deductible. I took it in to get it looked at and book a time to get it fixed(in a few weeks). I have about a dozen dents (most on the hood) and a few on the roof...the quote was $1200 to take out the dents and repaint the roof, the hood and "feather" it into the fenders. I have a galaxy grey and he said you cannot just paint the hood....you need to have it feathered. My dents were not big enough to "pop" out so they are going to fill them and sand them down. I take it in the first week of July so I will let you know how it turns out.
