New Car Karma

I have had my new 2015 Camaro for 2 weeks now and I have already got 3 door dings on the passenger side and somebody backed into my front bumper. I have never had anything ever happen to any other vehicle I have owned. Is this new car karma? The passenger door has 3 little dings and the front bumper has some rubbed off and slightly chipped paint at the tip. I am going to have to find a decent body shop to fix the dings and "hopefully" they will come out.. What is the best way to touch up the minor little smudges from the dings? Its AGM color. Also, with the bumper, since it is just plastic and no cracks should i touch it up or replace the bumper completely? It is not real noticeably unless you look close. It looks like a rock chip basically.. This stuff has made me sick to my stomach. Nothing is new for long in this world. Haha.

Sorry you had this happen so soon.
Most Camaro owners park far away from the rest of the cars, in lots.

Just touch up the chipped paint, and rub out the bumper with polishing compound. If it scuffed white, its just the clear coat.
Should be good to go.

That sucks to hear but yeah, park where no one else is. Nothing wrong with walking. Unless your in Texas, then you might actually melt or bust into flames.
