Wow, I just read this thread and I swear it feels as if I typed it. I just had my car transformed with lottttttttts of parts to upgrade the appearance. The following weekend of me installing all of the upgrades, I take my girl out to eat. We go to a restaurant and they have a couple of spots towards the front. I said, rather than parking near someone else...let me park away from everybody in the empty lot (a tad crooked so no one will park next to me). Of course, we eat, we come outside....a piece of crap parked to my left...a piece of crap parts to my right (mind u, there are still tons of empty spots in front of the restaurant). The first thing I do is inspect my doors (especially the side where I was further in the other spot and the guy squeezed his way in). I didn’t see anything at the moment (I guess due to the light and angle I was tried to view the car in). The next day I take my other vehicle to work and when I get home....wala, 2 dents and a pretty deep scratch. When u walk up on it, depending on the angle you are viewing it…..it would appear invisible. Knowing it’s there when I wasn’t is the hardest part & if u are viewing it in the right light & angle...it stands out like a sore thumb smh.

Very sorry to hear what has happened to your cars. This disrespect of property appears to be becoming an epidemic lately. Two weeks ago someone drove up and flung their door open on my SS. We need to keep watch for each other and if i see anyone pulling in next to a Camaro too close anywhere, i will certainly note the license plate, make/model/color and leave a note for the Camaro driver. Eventually these hacks will start paying for their indescretions.

Want to hear the ironic part? My Silverado was more expensive than my Camaro and the Silverado never got a ding in 7 years, 130000 miles and parked anywhere up close I wanted. And if you look around there are a lot of other cars and trucks on the road a lot more expensive than my Camaro.

I have been driving for 25 years and I have NEVER door dinged another car. As a matter of fact I have never even let my door touch another car even in windy conditions.

Hopefully this was the last one. It was by far the deepest and the guy said it was the toughest to get it all out and not be able to tell.
