Default First door ding. WTF Grrrrr!!

Came out of the movie theater, walk up to my freshly washed and waxed, beautiful black stallion and there it is... a ding right behind the drivers door that's just screaming for attention. FML. I swear some people do this on purpose because I'm very careful where I park. Its not horrible, but its the only imperfection on her and it annoys me to no end!

Does anyone in the Phoenix area know of a GREAT paintless dent removal place in the west valley area? My baby deserves to be flawless!

People do that because they are haters and have no respect for other peoples property. You almost cant drive anything but a beater these days.

When possible I always park with the driver door protected. If I'm gonna get a ding I dont want it on the drivers side thats for sure.

Sorry about the damage........... many people just suck.....fricken haters.

More than likely it was just a careless person. Ever notice the condition of the average person's car? They don't even respect their own property, let alone others'.

For some reason I always thought my windshield was dirty until I started to look at other cars........now I think I do a pretty good job. When ever possible I park way in the back and just walk, it's not to be a ***** and say "hey look at my car suckas" but so I don't end up with what the OP has.

I know how you feel. Unfortunately it comes with driving the car. I hate washing my car these days because looking at the hood and front bumper at 65,000 miles just makes me cringe. I also had someone swing their door into my car which lead to some white paint transfer on my black car... about a week after I picked her up... It sucked so much but such is the way of life I suppose.

Sorry to hear that! I HATE dings. I had a few removed from a guy around here who's been doing it for 17 years. It's amazing. Just like new.

BTW, my Mustang won't ever see a movie theater parking lot, a Walmart lot or the mall parking lot. Luckily my Mustang isn't my DD so I just choose where and when to drive it.
