    The VIV process can be a nighmare if they decide to get picky and actually hold you to the "manufacturers specs" terminology for the quality of repairs.

    I went through it when i bought a repairable write-off D2 a while back, you could get lucky and they'll pass it straight through with the hail damage unrepaired, but conversely get them on a bad day and they could require you to replace the entire roof panel with new as filling in the dents with bog or knocking them out and spot repainting any resulting paint cracks likely wouldn't be up to original factory standards.

    Bit of a risk, so given current market values to buy a replacement i'd be recommending giving the VIV process a miss and just have it written off, keeping whatever accessories etc you can before it goes as mentioned.

    Cheers,

    Al
