Had two dents in my passenger door within a week of getting the thing. I think jealousy was the reason. Anyway cost me 50 bucks to have them removed. Believe me I would love to find the sub-human c&*k sucker that did that. Most people don't care and are to stupid to care simply cause if thier brains were gas, they couldn't power a piss ant halfway around a BB. Just sayin.....

Jethro flings, or THROWS his door open. The only reason
it didn't dent my door is that his door was small and didn't reach.

Not funny. There's no getting money out of losers like that.

Park at the gas pump nobody will park next to you..

Wow, Im glad that you were there to see it and able to stop her. For both of my door dings I was not present so I got left on the hook. Consider yourself fortunate that you were there, granted if I seen someone door ding my car and then lie to my face about it Id flipped sh-. I would have called the cops anyways, police report would squash any chance that lady has at telling her insurance company that she didn't do it.

Just got my first door ding today - while at work.


I parking on the lab side of the building, where only 6 people park. There was green paint transfer, only one green vehicle parks here. The ding was on my driver's side, and the owner of the vehicle had taken a customer to lunch. On what could only be considered a guilt trip back after hours, he parked several spaces away and slowly strolled passed looking at the driver's side dents. I walked out and met him at the door, told him I noticed I had gotten door dings while at work today and told him I wasn't mad, I just wished someone would have told me. He just kind of coughed a "well... okay I'll see you tomorrow." and left.


I'll also have to work with this guy tomorrow.

Does anybody know how the police would handle a door ding call? If this does happen to me and the d bag doesn't cop to it, should I just call and say hit and run? I would think they would laugh at me if I called the police to report a door ding. Anybody ever had to call the cops over a lieing door dinger? Sorry for thR thread jack, I just want to know how it would go down.
