You should read up on the law of attraction before you can understand my post.

I was thinking physics and that made no sense to me.
If you're talking about the idea of car getting messed up, that really wouldn't be the case.
I've never had any vehicle to vehicle mashing nor did I expect/prepare for.
Only rock chips and stuff - which happened ironically + a rock tapping the windshield -_-

The idea is if you were to constantly worry about something happening to your car. then something is going to happen to your car... in a nutshell.

Keep in mind also that people who have trouble with their car will tend to post their frustrations, while those that don't won't post.

Ugh, yeah I finally got my baby back last Friday.
Super glad to have her back repaired nicely.
The rear bumper and fender isn't aligned 100% - just a small dip hardly noticeable.
Prestigious Autobody in Goleta, Cali.

This was the damage:
