I have gotten 4 door dings over the year that i have had my car, fortunately i have my own pdr tools Only part that sucks is when the paint is chipped as well. For me chip blending is not my fortay, a bit more experience which i don't want...lol will only come with time.

 

My Z is now 7 years old and 0 dings.

It is all about where you park and how to park.

Fortunatly I now have a DD to take to places I would never take my Z.

 

problem solved lol....

 

justin is a fooktard

 

But only when that type of space is available

 

Aren't gore lines something you should never even drive on, let alone park? ;P

 

It's a good way to get clipped when someone cuts that corner. But hey, Justin doesn't have the mental capacity to comprehend that.

 

I stopped in a book store one day to purchase a CD (yes this was a while back and I enjoyed the music so I didn't mind paying for it) and was parked in the back of the lot by myself. I come back outside and some douche decided to park so close to my car I couldn't even reach the driver door. Luckily I have a 6MT so I just reached in the passenger side and released the parking brake. Rolled the car forward, put a size 13 foot print in their door, got in and left.

 

I took my step sister to look at a car she wanted to buy in a nearby condo in my Z one day. I parked in what was apparently the valet temp parking stuff, it wasn't marked as such and I was only going to walk into the parking garage to see a car, not go into the building so I didn't drive to the front and check with the valet guys.

After we came out, they had parked a pair of trucks (range rover and some other SUV) within 5 inches of my car on both sides. Used the remote to roll my windows down, climbed the hood of the range rover, took my shoes off and slid into my car, drove it out. The Valet kids were not pleased.


I always park far as **** from people and do see the same thing, some random person parks right next to me when there's space everywhere. If it's a nice car I assume they are protecting their car as well but it's still unnecessary.

 

It's not a conspiracy. I'm convinced it's done on purpose.

I work for a large dealership that has over 140 employees. Our parking lot is shared with a (seldom busy) but very large indoor shopping mall that ALWAYS has plentiful spots in the boonies given how far you're willing to walk.

I don't mind walking.

I park where there are maybe ten cars out of the given 60-70 spots. Granted, I know my parking job was horrible, but was it really hurting anyone way out there?

What'd'ya know some A$$Clown in his Dodge 3500 has to come park so close I can barely open my door.



Then I notice the dealer plates. . If I was some customer at the mall, or wanted a safe place to park my car while I was shopping for a new car (at their dealership), is this the kind of message we want to be sending?

F*cking salespeople. (No offense to anyone in sales) But many of them are the typical self-absorbed a$$hole you'd expect.

/rant

 

I take pictures of bad parkers all the time. I don't blur their tag so that way if someone knows them maybe we can do some public shaming.

 

It's a dealer plate to the dealership I work at... Some salesperson parked it there for some reason, unknowing that I was also an employee.

 

I must be the only one that lives in an area that allows this, but I just park at an angle and use up two parking spaces. People with vettes do it all the time. Nobody has ever said anything, and besides, if they don't like it they can just get over it. Lol. Really tho, a lot of people in our area do it. Saves your car!

 

until your car gets keyed for parkin that way

 

If I had a jeep I didn't care about I would definitely do this.

 

Just saw that back spoiler on the white 911 GT3... sorry, that is wrong! Mods are fine but adding so much plastic just makes it lose credibility/elegance/wow factor outside of the tuning community. Cars have original shapes for a reason.

(Not trying to start a fight or flaming, just my two cents! The logos are absent from my Z's back and the back window is tinted.)



Edit: now I'm worried that it came stock with that spoiler? In which case, I take back what I said :S

 

A quick google search makes me think that is stock.

 

In his defense, he IS a honda boy afterall...

 

dont know why he is bringing up the tail when we are talking about door dings

 

92 and n0smoke- good stories, more pls
