Cuppie vs. Hail

Well, 3 days after I bought Cuppie Oklahoma had a freak hail storm, and of course Cuppie was beamed! The hail came right as I was going to try to beat the storm and hide it in a parking garage. Cuppie, now has a broken windshield, a broken door handle and about 100+dents. Total cost to repair Cuppie? Well thats between 3000-4000 as of now, I still have to go to a body shop to see if she needs new fenders due to where the dents are.

So now as Cuppie drives around and looks cute, she is dented, till JULY 17! ahhhh thats so far away from now! So many people got a surprise hit, so to get in to a shop is a long wait. I am just glad I got my insurance claim in early! I called insurance 35 minutes after the storm hit, and still had a 5 day wait to see them! Not only did my car get hit, but my dad's new car and my mother's not new car, bright side for her, she needed a new car anyways! So now a new car search starts!

So what do I do about parts? Well, I have decided that I am going to go to Carbon Fiber, weight reduction and an awesome new look for Cuppie it is! Sad part is, Cuppie is now set back on powder coating her wheels and painting her calibers till I get the money again. These deductibles are no joke folks and I am very thankful that I was raised to always keep that money in savings!

So what will Cuppie miss due to this storm? Well she will miss not only the Cupcake Meet(which was last weekend) but, her owner missed the cupcake challenge! Which was a benefit! She will also miss showing herself off out on 39th and at Fun Run's due to her bumpy exterior. But wait, the silver lining in this cloud! Cuppie will come back better then ever! She will look better, hopefully sound better and of course she will have an awesome new look!

So what did Cuppie and I learn from this storm? To not wait for Cole to go with us! If we had left, Cuppie would be dent free and beautiful! So lesson learned and a great new start to Cuppies life, after the body shop!
