hail damage ... surely they are not that bad
NSW hail is legendary and damages all type of cars even big GM, Ford and Chrysler full size metalmobiles.

In the big hail of 1971 was probably when they were damaged. Although it was fairly small a lot of it came down.

The 1999 hail was 9cm diameter and damaged 63,000 vehicles.

Actually it was available in the U.S. as a dealer installed option.
I remember the guys in the shop complaining about how difficult they
were to install and make them look good.

plate surround.

Cheers.
I was around many years ago when I built my first coupe.
I have now returned, with a new passion to do this one.
ACT I hail from.
