Unhappy Very Sad Day..

Well today was actually going pretty good, the weather is awesome finally, nice and sunny, got out of work early, well on my way home, almost there, not even a half-a-mile away... BAM!!!! This rock came out of left field and nails the front part of my roof... The roof is aluminum and let me tell you when it hit, it scared the **** out of me.. Anyways, now I have this big dent on the roof of the car, paint all gone... It was a pretty nasty hit... It looks horrible... Any advice on what I should do, cost... Anything well help, maybe some morale support.. (Car is 3 weeks Old)

i feel your pain, a drunken friend of mine thought "it will be really cool if i run,jump and land with my *** on his roof" well, he did it. The *** imprint is right behind my sunroof so when i try to open my sunroof it goes no where... i feel your pain my friend. Try to avoid the stealership, they wanted 1700 dollars to fix mine. In the end i fixed it myself for freee. my paint never cracked or wrinkled so i was good. But sorry about your horrific accident.
