    i work at a dealership in phoenix.....we had over 40 cars with busted out windshields and/or backglass and every single car on the lot was dented to hell. i brought in a piece of hail that was half the size of my computer mouse.

    my truck is dented on all sides and the windshield has 8 cracks in it.

    Keep in mind, Show cars use bondo judiciously.

    Get PDR done by a rep guy... most of it can probably be done that way. Also like Chris said, bondo is used on a lot of show cars...

    If they do it right, the pain can end up looking better than new. No orange peel affect....
