[Shotimes] Re: 96 SHO damage report

[sho2go]

My '95 got 2 hail dents in Texas, on the top.  One of the local paintless
ding-fixers straightened them up, and you couldn't tell.  Now, a year later,
the paint has cracked over those 2 spots and is flaking off; a little rust
is showing.  I think long-term this type of repair is suspect.
