Just found my first clear coat scratches on the passenger side front quarter panel. About 10-12 inches long a piece. Looks like somebody rubbed up against my car while walking. Anyway, I saw it, stopped, and thought "son of a bitch!". Suddenly realized this is going to be the first of hopefully just a few. Got over it and put some ultimate compound on it and it is much better. Dings/dents can be repaired quite well these days. $100 and you should be good as new.

I also hunt for spots near striped zones and curbs so I can create a huge gap between one side of me and the next car. Or I'll look for the nicest sports car and park there, I know they wont hit me.

I had a ripple in my door before I even purchased the car. I'm assuming it was from the transport. Oh well….it happens! Glad she fessed up to you!

Got sideswiped yesterday and left considerable waves with scratches - hit and run and they probably didn't even know they did it - I was so pissed - my deductible is too high to bother with the insurance. Now I have to find a competent shop that can match the pearl white. Just venting thanks for listening

I have a door ding, crack in the front bumper and curb rash on two Work Kiwami's and it doesn't really bother me; not worth stressing over. This is not a Ferrari (and if I could afford one I probably wouldn't care about dings either).
