I had about 60-70 dings to my old Millenia from a Central Florida hailstorm a few years back. Got one of those "paintless" dent removal guys to work on the car, and for $300, it was perfect! Try that first.

Man that sucks! Your insurance should cover it. Mine was in a parking lot, about two days after I got it, when a huge storm came through and started dropping hail. I was lucky, but for a while there, I was really worried.

Ouch!! The good news is, it could have been worse. You should take it to a paintless dent shop and get an estimate. Maybe paying out of pocket would be better so your premium is not affected.
Good luck!!
