So yea, walked out to my car after work and noticed a good sized ding on my passanger door.....yea you can see a crack in the pain that occured on the outer part of the dent.....not too happy....(removed) did they freekin slammed their car door into my car? Ill take pics tomorrow....Im pissed.

people are thoughtless, careless and have no respect for other people's property. Makes me want to put them all in a room and dent their skulls in with a pipe...

That sucks!!!!!!! I want to join your and Mavrik's posse!When my Mom had her '89 Bonny we went to a restaurant one night. There was only one stall left, and some dummy with a junkyard piece of little truck in the stall next to it was really close to the line. I don't like the looks of this, I say, and the next day...sure enough, there were deep key scratches on that side of the door...as if the person had their keys clipped to their belt and so thoughtfully rubbed along the side of the Bonny to try to get in to their crappy truck.

my mom's bonny got it too, by another bonny!

What donkeys in this world

That's why I park on an angle.The wife gives my the look,but we don't get dents or scratches anymore.You know what's weird also,I can park at the back of an empty lot where no cars are.When I come out,there are like 10 cars hovering around me,seems as though I'm a magnet for idiots.

I also am parking away from other cars in the garage at work, there is one place near the wall, knowing that sooo many careless people around! But it's hard to avoid these close encounters when you go shopping.

ouch. as someone who once had $1100 worth of damage done by an anonymous stranger with a fist full of keys, i really feel your pain.

Ill take pics tomorrow....Im pissed.Ill tell ya, back in October, had not even put 5k on mine at the time and some guys girlfriend in Orlando hit the left back door with their door, and i noticed she did it becuase of the look on her face and the truck was red (red scratch on the moulding). Point is, they were dumb enough to stay parked there, so i kicked the passenger door and left a dent....It may teach them something.... or it may not

Sorry to hear, Katscan! It happens to everyone and it sucks that there is usually nothing you can do about it. I have several small dings in my doors from other people. I may do paintless sent removal later this year to get them out.Quote, originally posted by silvrhawk7 »Ill tell ya, back in October, had not even put 5k on mine at the time and some guys girlfriend in Orlando hit the left back door with their door, and i noticed she did it becuase of the look on her face and the truck was red (red scratch on the moulding).

That makes what you did much worse than what they did. Not cool, man!

By the look on her face, it was not accidental....Had she been different about it, i would not have done it. and normally i am not that way but that day i did get pushed over the edge.

Heres a pic of the ding....its right above and infront of the side badge....they even managed to scrape a section of the decal off the badge.

thats a shame, I will have to post my war wound too...

Man that's more than a ding. That's a flesh wound. Mine got dinged when I had my windsheild replaced. Of course I didn't notice ot until the guy was gone. And you know you can't prove anything like that.

the lil scrap u have can be easily buffed out...so no need to worry much

I hate stupid people. I always try to park next to a curb and park as close to the curb as possible so that the door could not make contact. I have a scrape near the bottom on the left behind the back tire.
