Mojitos Anybody?

A few pics from Saturday's hail storm. I barely saw anything in BP, but my shop in Golden Valley got hammered. All my cars have severe hail, but the worst one by far is the 350Z I had at last Tuesday's Porky's cruise. Hail is especially tough on aluminum body panels. Ouch.

BTW, this is 40 minutes after it happened, hail was golf ball size when it first came down. Thank God for insurance.

That sucks about the 350Z. I loved that car.

That's alright, they were plenty happy collecting my $500/mo for the last six years with only one claim.

Think of it as shot peening. Now all your cars have extra durable body panels!

Sorry to hear man. Insurance can be a lifesaver sometimes!

Just got back from the bodyshop, $4000 to fix the 350z. Ouch, glad I've got insurance.

$4,000 is pretty cheap. We had an '08 Lexus ES350 come in last week... The estimate came to $13,000
