I don't know man, it's a hassle, but you pay insurance for this reason. You now get all new siding, color and type of your choice, a total makeover of the interior rooms that were affected, new roofing, ect. It's like having 75% of renovation costs paid for.
For the car, updated tail lights, a top with a glass window, and any other repairs that it needs due to storm. Insurance will pay for the existing parts, but in most cases, the new ones are the same price or close to it.

well, the insurance company came through and gave us an estimate on the house. they supposed to send someone out to take a look at the car. adjuster was supposed to come by today, but a no show. hopefully, i'll have some good news by the end of the week. the insurance company has been swamped with claims so things are taking a lot longer than normal. i'll keep you guys updated!

Dude that sucks squared, but at least you are here to suffer through it. Good luck with the cleanup.

Wow. What the hail took out your back window?? Looks like it must have been a softball-sized chunk of hail.

I was watching the storms and tornados, kinda fantasizing about the remodeling I wanted to do and hoping if a tree hit the house, it would hit where I wanted the remodeling - so insurance could help me out! All the tornados missed me. Oh well. [ha ha]  Its all in your perspective! I agree with all the comments here - look forward to the new and improved and don't get bummed.

*update*
alright, so finally the insurance company came out to inspect all the damage. he came up with a little of $6k of damage. i found a decent porsche specialty shop not too far from my local dealer and dropped the car off there as soon as the insurance dude left. this shop seems pretty decent, they've built a few track cars. they actually had 2 944 track cars and a 996 cup car in the shop. before we even begin the cosmetic stuff though, he's going to figure out what went wrong with my motor. they're going to get into it first thing monday. meanwhile, i'm going to source out the parts for the exterior. well i'll keep you folks updated!
