Haha. Not a bad idea. In this case...What did someone else do to my CX-5. Lol.There probably should be a separate thread for What the Hell Did You Do TO Your CX-5 Today?
It's Kaps and I believe he has found a good body shop fixing his door damage. But you guys' CX-5's are much better off than my CX-5, more than a hundred of dents need to get fixed!⋯ Who was the other guy that got hit in a parking lot? Was it Kaps?

Yep! Going to find out the damage estimate next Tuesday with Progressive adjuster. Most likely our CX-5 needs a new hood and a new roof. I can't imagine the horrible process of chopping the old roof off and welding a new roof on!Hail?
Kaps?I'm pretty sure that's not how a roof gets repaired Kaps.
Kaps?
In theory PDR is the best way to fix those hail dents. But once the number of dents exceeds the cost of a new roof, insurance would pay only the cheaper roof replacement. A friend of mine suffered hail damage on his 2014 CX-5 last year, and a new hood and new roof were the repair. He decided to trade in his 2014 CX-5 Touring as is and bought a new 2016.5 CX-5 GT! He actually suggests me to do the same this time!
I've $1,000 deductible too and I believe insurance is for major accidents, not for minor incident like you just had. I'd try to keep factory paint as much as I can. Re-painting is more expensive, and won't last as long as factory paint although Service King offers life-time warranty. Yeah go for the "cheap" route!Wow. I do wonder how one goes about replacing a CX-5 roof. (scratch)
Edit: Well without repainting and replacing anything (except the trim around the wheel), Service King can get me mostly fixed up for $180. That would be replacing that trim around the wheel, polishing up the wheel and paint and doing something with the plastic part to clean it up and condition. Won't be perfect, but should make it good enough. If they went the route of replacing items/repainting, etc. then it's closer to $980.
My deductible is $1000 (only way I could keep it affordable monthly as a 26 year old male in Denver (argh) ). So if I am paying out of pocket, I'll go the cheap route lol.

Jump on that $180 repair. That's really fair. Hope it comes out to your liking...
