yep. all pushed back one by one with slow hits from inside..  and some were hardly accessible, I couldnt believe my eyes when I first saw..  ???      these are really proffesional people and extremely expensive within our standards.. but worth it..
the reason I choose them is , you have only one chance to correct , if not done properly you cant do it a second time...
and I spend long time to paint this car, so should have to be a perfect job.. and the ceiling never painted and there we cant use any filling material as they measure paint thickness when selling. so I'm happy with that job :) :y

  We had a similar problem in Essex in the late 1980,s with a freak hail storm. many, many cars had to have there roof panels replaced as the damage was so bad. some even had front wings, bonnets and boot lids/ tailgates replaced, and then came along the famous Micheal Fish "no hurricane" warning. body shops had work backed up for six months without the normal crash repairs coming in. keith B

this event in the last 3 years become a regular weather habit although I cant remember it happened the last 40 or more years :(
 
if it happens to miggy , ceiling can be corrected similiarly but a broken sunroof cant be found easily and wont arrive quickly even if I make a pre-paid order :(
