I remember when canary first started that thread and unless you OPEN the attached pictures, the damage doesn't really look all that bad but upon further investigation:

the crazy thing is he actually got it all repaired through a paintless dent removal shop. I can't even imagine how many dents they took out and how LONG of a process that was.

Lol, my car has been hailed on many times.

The only time it does damage is if there's a freakishly large hailstorm with golf-ball sized hail. If you hear about that, get your **** underground, a car cover won't protect it!
