Be glad you're in SoCal. Everyone up here who has clipped the littlest things has ended up with destroyed bumpers. They get so brittle in the cold.
Yeah, when i got out of the car, I expected a huge crack on my lip. So glad just minor damage. It was pretty hot lately, so I guess I am grateful for the weather.

Big sigh of relief!
Yeah, I was very much scared to look at my damage after I turned off the car. I think my bumper would have popped off. My mechanic helped me fix that headlight clip problem I used to have.

Nope! That's why I never expected it there. If it was common, I would have been wary of this happening. It's usually one block for each spot or none at all.

Glad the damage was minimal!

Shit happens...
Yeah, it was pretty amazing! I still need to check out my car though. I haven't really fully inspected it today. (I haven't left my house yet today. haha)
