So, at first I thought it could have been a bird crashing vertically along the lines of my car,

I thought it might have been the wind having been so strong to perfectly shard diagonal lines on the passenger side of my car,

I even came to believe it was ME who miraculously keyed my own car after a night of heavy drinking,

until I woke up and called myself what my father called me for many years..

a "HEY ********!"


I'll show pictures later, but I've come to realize that parking in the community parking lot was a Bad idea. It just so happens that every other week, I see what it seems to be vertical scrape most likely caused by people having a bad sense of surrounding.

I mean you'd think it would be easy to open your car door enough for you to get out but not wide enough to smash the side of the car next to yours right?

WRONG


so that being said, where do you park?

at the store, right next to the cart return. on the street infront ofmy parents and friends, and at home, my apartment has a 5story partking garage. i've come to find, the harder you try to avoid dings, they just show up, i.e. when younger i worked at homedepot. ppl would park allll the way at the end of the lot in gardening to avoid ppl and carts... a little bit a wind will do wonders to a well rolling car and just Slam the **** outta ya.

I don't park my FD anywhere unless I can see it at all times.

not many options in japan so...whatever. When i had my 01 prelude SH i would park as far away from everything as possible and usually i would try to find one of those corner parking spots where there is a curb on one side so that only one car would be able to park next to me

If it wasn't on the road being driven, it was in the garage. Sure, I'd take it to little shops and whatnot that I could street park on, but never next to another car.

Parking next to the cart return isn;t a bad idea....no one puts their carts back anyway so its probably safer there.

I park my FD in a storage shed that is a mile from my house. If I am out, I park anywhere I can see it.

Where it's hot, at the house, on the block.

FDs body is too sensitive to dents, and specially minor dents. I see a scratch a day even when my car is parked right out side my office and i can see it clearly.

The most sensitive and fragile i would say, part would be the front fenders. i have seen peole leaning over the windows to see whats inside. I have literally a fight over someone actually trying to sit over leftside fender.

And then at last, i myself pushed two tiny dent on right fender while pressing two fingers while washing it.

I love my FD but this car is toooooo sensitive to dents.

When parking in parkinglots I usually take a spot that has some clear spaces around it in all directions.
But it doesn't always work. Plenty of times I come back and find out some ricer thought it would be cool to park right next to my car...

Either in my garage/driveway, as far away as possible, or anywhere if I'm at work. Everyone at work knows and respects the 7.

tru.....

AdamBench

i refuse to park mine anywhere that is not an end spot bordered by cross lines so i can get as far away from guy next to me

As far away from other cars as possible, up against a curb so one side is protected. At stores etc. where i could see my car, like eating at a fast food place...someplace where i can see the car.

in a parking lot, ill find a curb, the decorative parking lot islands,with trees. it seems all parking lots in Florida have them.

and ill park REALLY close to it, so that the other side of the car is as far away as it can be from the closest space. you would have to park in 2 spaces to make your door reach my car...........and im sure there are idiots that do

As mentioned earlier by kaisar1, these cars dent ridiculously easy. I remember one time with my FC I was changing a rear tire and the car tried to come off the jack, I grabbed the car by the rear fender to hold it and steady it and my THUMB actually made a dent by simply me squeezing hard. And my poor FD...I don't take it and park it too many places as I tell you, it INEVITABLY gets a door ding in it. Hell, I can park way out in bumfuckegypt where there are NO cars around and I will come out of a mall or whatever and, there will be some ***-wipe parked next to me and sure as ****...a new door ding.
At home I park in my garage. At work we have oversize parking spots, the owner of the business deliberately made them overly wide so there is no danger of door dings from doors thrown open or caught by the wind.
