most people would do PDR for hail damage, but i think each car would cost at least $2k to do PDR and if they could do the whole car. i don't know how they'll going remove the dents on the A pillars.

$2k seems kinda high. The PDR guy who works for my shop charges $75 a panel even if theres hail damage. See if you can find someone willing to do a side job. They won't be able to get everything out, but they will be able to get a good majority of them.

$75 a panel is one hell of a deal. i know people do $100 per dent lol. i know a friend of mine got a quote for his roof only and was like $700. this is a 12 / 13hrs job.

My car lot got hit also. Most do panels by dents. 0 to 16 is this much 16 to 25 is this much etc. One of my cars got an estimate of 4500. Some panels just cause for replacement after so many dents. Lucky my baby was garaged.

I saw your title and thought you got caught street racing in Cali. Sucks but could have been worst, all of your cars (GS) could look like they made a run through a golf driving range!
