I had a small ding but seems I bought dent guard and they'll be fixing it Friday. People suck, you park far and magically they park next to you and are the cause of a ding.

One time when I came back to my car a truck was dead close to my driver side and.. I don't understand how he got off. Without hitting my door which I bet he did. I inspected the area and nothing

I can see the benefits of the opposing color. I thought the red would look nicer, but yeah the bright green gets your attention.

I had someone do this to my 2012 ZL1 recently! It was at a car show no less. I actually have pictures of the car parked next to me but decided to just let it go. Dent Wizard removed it completely, can't even see it.

:Sheepish: I lost control of my door in the wind about two years ago and put a ding in my friends brand new 2014 Spring Edition. I still want to cry. He still didn't fix it so it hurts every time I see it.

That truck driver cared about your car. If the door opened slowly and rest on your car, it won't leave any marks. I did that few times..

LOL, this literally made me laugh. Probably because most of the time I do this same thing, in my head, or out-loud but no one can hear me inside my car. I rarely express my thoughts so others can hear me mainly because anyone could have a gun these days.

I knew a guy in college that saw some punks hit a nice corvette that was parked out then they moved their car to a closer location...he saw them laughing about it...when they went indoors and came back outside they found 2 slashed tires....probably wasnt as funny then

Trust me bro I wasn't calm at all. I've got anger issues especially being that I'm ex military! I have also learned that it's just a car that can be repaired, a ****ed up police report can't. I just moved on and took to dent shop in which they found dents I didn't even know existed which tells me more people have hit my car. My girl is the classic "it's just a car person" meaning she always wonders why I baby a car bc it will happen again 😂
