Well Damn....

That totally sucks...

Sorry for you misfortune!

Hopefully it will get fixed soon and be better than new.

At least he was honest about it instead of trying to get out of dealing with it.

That is an easy fix - left side panel unbolts so you do not have to replace the entire hood.
I would open and close the hood a few times to make sure it didn't bend the hinges or move the hood alignment.
As long as nothing is bent all can be adjusted

@The Ghost, be sure you have your dealer look at it. Trust me, adjusters are not at all familiar with these and will try to lowball as much as possible. My first SS was backed into in back 6 weeks after I got it. Adjuster figured about $400. Ended up giving me $1800.

Sorry @MISC!!! Got in a hurry typing. Maybe I cablame it on my phone spell check.

WELL! DAMN! S--T Happens. If you need a hand give me a call. Coastal can take care of it, it will not be their first.

Knowing the substructure and how things are put together, you will not know the damage until the hood is taken apart. If your dealer doesn't have experience doing that, they will probably damage the inserts removing them. So make them take it apart before you accept the outcome.

Shouldn't it go to a Polaris dealer for estimate? That was what happened when mine was hit - and subsequently totaled. The insurance adjusters know diddly about the Slingshot!

That is exactly what my adjuster told me to do. Then the dealership had the audacity to charge for the estimate.

Mine did too and it was entirely fair. They should be paid for their time. The charge was for much less time than they put into and was initially paid by me (to retrieve the Slingshot), then reimbursed by my insurance - only because I settled through my insurance instead of the drunk's. Yours and @MISC 's should be paid by the responsible party's insurance.
