    Melb: Hailstorm

    My car just got a beating by golf-ball sized hail stones. I hope there is no serious damage.

    I was frantic,as my Jetta was parked near Southern Cross station,and Spencer Street shopping centre,ex DFO,had to be closed down because of severe damage.
    I was dreading getting back to my car,but it seems ALL GOOD.
    Then took 3 hours to drive home a distance of 15 kilometers...
    What a day...

    Mine got done in

    I was at the Vic Markets today. I saw the menacing cloud cover, but couldn't reach the little beast (2003 2.0 Golf) before the heavens opened up

    He took some damage: front plastic guard between the front window and bonnet has 2 large holes and a small crack; bonnet and roof have lots of small dents (10+ on the roof at least).

    OK guys, a little help with some names of good hail damage repair places in Melb would be nice.

    Does anyone know the name/prod-id of the plastic guard between the bonnet and front windows (the window wipers come through this plastic guard)?
