This is how a I feel too... in an ideal world I would park a 5 min walk away farther away than everybody. But living on the peninsula, working in SF.. parking spaces are hard to come by and hills/construction/bad roads suck. I have some curb rash that I'm pretty sure is from driving over construction/uneven/unpaved roads everyday on my commute.

So, I take what parking spaces are available. I'll be choosy if I can but usually don't have the luxury.

Also for people who park over the line, I try to give them the benefit of the doubt that the previous guy parked over the line, causing a chain reaction now so that everybody has to park over the line.

It sucks and I care a lot about my car but shit happens when you drive it every single day. A 100k+ car, well that deserves to be only out on the weekends and in the garage. A sub $30k with rattles/chirps... well I drive it every day and have fun every day.. I'll just cry on the inside when I scrape or get door dings.

I try and avoid cosmetic damage as much as I can, but it's going to happen and I'm ok with it. Hell, the VERY same day I brought it home, I had a gouge taken out of the paint on the hood by some road debris.

Do I love my car? Absolutely. Is it still an appliance that I rely on daily? Yep. That being the case, I haven't changed my daily routine on where I go, how I park, etc.

I see a ultramarine pretty often around Napa, near Soscol street. It looks stock from what I can tell.
