how to prevent dings and dent 101

handicap spaces have tons of room on all sides of your car so...
get a handicap placard for a "sprained ankle" then never turn it in and exploit the whole handicap parking thing like the rest of the FAT LAZY PEOPLE out there...

/sorry if you are really handicapped
//i'm going to hell

My dad has a handicapped sign...an extra one at that...comes in handy but i get looks when i park right in front walmart and get out of a lowered car...jut be careful, the wrong person might see you
 
park next or between high valued cars. not alway going to work

Yes, definately avoid s*** boxes. These people do not care what their car does to yours. They are the same type of people that, if they lived next door to you, their bad, dandelion infested grass and brat kids will wreck your stuff as well. I think they want everyone to be on even ground. If they have shitboxes, you might as well too.

I used the art of parking my car far away from other cars.... But i found myself getting bigger dents and dings by a runaway shopping carts. My car is like magnet.

Yes, this is a contradiction. I have also found that people that park far away sometimes run into problems with people purposely messing with their rides as it is clear that this is what is trying to be avoided.
 
Also forgot, when possible park so that a passenger side door faces your car, chances are lower anyone will use that door.
 
the thing that always pisses me off, is when u find a parking area wit no cars around, u come back and theres a bunch of fucktarts surrounding ur car..usually its fricken big ass SUVs..
 
Just park across 2 spots like i do. I'm an asshole but kiss my ass, 1 yr and no dings/dents. i typically do it at the very end of the row so i'm a considerate asshole.

Yeah but Im the asshole that slashes peoples tires who do that if they ARENT at the end of the parking lot, so make sure there are plenty of other spaces when you do this - dont do it in a lot where space is limited or I might get you. (idhitit)
 
I have an old farm truck that I drive to the store that is so ugly people are afraid to park next to me. I'm not talking about nice vehicles with caring/careful owners... I'm talking about the average Joe is afraid to park next to me.. like the ugly is going to jump off my truck and attack them.

Stay away from FAT people in large cars. In order to get their ass out of their car, they have to swing the door open as wide as it can go.

Stay away from SUV's because most likely what is inside those SUV's are multiple children in car seats and when mom wedges her stroller in between her monstrosity and your car and then swings the door wide open to get the kids out, your car gets hit.

11 dings i got is nowhere near where door moulding was. They woudnt have helped if they were there either. So in my case, i disagree.
 
go to wall mart, a buck fifty for a foam pool noodle, cut it in half, proceed with the taping of said noodle to sides, front and rear of vehicle. enjoy.
 
Smartest thing in this thread.

The moldings don't do s***, they're not even placed on the door where it sticks out the farthest. Some old lady in a buick threw her door open all the way and hit my passenger side door about 3-5 inches above the moldings. Left a nice sized dent and chipped my ******* paint!

With the incorrect placement of the moldings and the fact that our cars are slightly lower compared to most other cars, there's no way someone's door is gonna hit the moldings instead of the doors.

I don't want to read to see if anyone has already posted this or not.
But don't leave your car at a body shop that leaves your car outside, if there's any chance of badass hailstorms.
6k in damage, I win on the dent game.
