I dont think you can PDR the aluminum...
If Insurance replaces the top, I would be interested in buying the beat up damaged one for the Race car.

Thought you got a good deal on one?

But I will keep you in the loop. I will be fighting with them to just replace it but we will see.

The PDR guy said he can do aluminum, but from what I have seen online its the skeleton of the hardtop and its many layers that prevents it from being able to be done. He said the hood he can take care of.

Anyone know a good body shop around? I'm in the Goodlettsville-ish area if that helps.

man! The only panel on my car not touched is the driver door I think lol

Yea, post up some pics!! Need a shoulder to cry on

I am going to be going to either Trickett Honda or Accurate Auto Body. Both are near the mall at rivergate.

I did get a "deal" on one, but I would rather sell this good one, and run a damaged one, if I ran across a deal on one. I cringe sometimes knowing Im using a perfectly good factory hardtop out there to race with. Im interested in seeing what the insurance company says about it. If the check is good enough... race car it and buy another one.
