$ 4000-7000 depending on a lot of things
Insurance should cover everything minus your deductable
AND please specifically ask for GENUINE HONDA PARTS.

yeah all of it except the 250 deductible, so i received 3250 from the insurance. no, your premiums shouldn't go up since you had nothing to do with causing the damages. if the rates did go up on your insurance, then it wouldn't be until after your contract is over and it would have to go up for everybody in your area then, which is not too likely, but it might if hail becomes really common which i doubt since in texas it hails alot and the rate never changes or just a little. basically any damage that is not your fault, your insurance premiums shouldnt change at all. if damages is more than your deductible, then you really should file a claim because that is one reason why we pay to get insurance.

Reytito, when my car got hit by the previous Columbus hail storm, I had very similar damage. Dent Doctor took care of me for $800 of my insurance company's money. 2 hours later, I was driving out with a flawless factory finish.
