Door Dings

Last week the wife and I went to Myrtle Beach for vacation. I always park in the back of parking lots far from any other cars. My 2010 was flawless with not one door ding until last weekend when some Ahole decided to park right next to me. I was 15 spaces away from the nearest car before this guy parked next to me. It was pooring rain and I did not look at the side of my car however I noticed the faded Ford Fusion parked next to the passenger side. I was thinking what a retard parking next to me all the way out here. Well you guessed it, as soon as I got home, I noticed this freaking door ding plain as day. So some people feel they drive a piece of crap and they have to ruin other peoples cars just because they are a loser. To the person in Myrtle Beach driving the faded Ford Fusion S--t box, you suck big time. Now I need to try to find a paintless dent removing company and pay them big time to try to remove this freaking dent.

Damn that's one hell of a dent, that took some effort like I purposely threw my door open into your car, not the **** my door opened a bit to far and gave you a scuff. Hopefully they'll be able to pull it no problem.

Funnyish story about door dings, my uncle used to turn wrench and paint/bodywork on farm tractors and cars, he picked up a rough shape mustang (I think it was a fast back) first trip to the store after re-painting it he got a nasty door ding with paint transfer, just so happened the car was still parked next to him. They left no note in the windsheild or drivers window, so he gave them a boot dent

I'm sorry for your loss.. A couple weeks ago I was doing volunteer work at Cedar Point and this guy had a nice silver Shelby mustang. I parked about three cars down. When we came out after our shift the car was surrounded by the owner and cops. Someone spray painted "*name* is a *****" and "Bitch" on the other side. Also.. Put a lot of small dents along the body lines across the whole car. ******** ruining others things that are nice. Might not have been them but I got off easy.. Someone put bottles under my windshield wipers and broke one of them off.. If I would have seen them though...

one thing to do also,when it is windy is to park into the wind.that way the wind will push the doors closed instead of flying open into the car next to you.

I used to have a nasty dent on my car door. A kid im no longer friends with opened it and a huge gust of wind took the door and slammed it into the back bumper of a ford f150. I took it to a body shop it was was going to be over $500. When I dropped it off to get detailed at another shop they saw it and called me at work asking if i wanted it taken out. $70 later you cant even tell there was a dent there and it was crease. My new car has a dent the side of a dime on the door so im taking it in to have the dent popped out.

This has absolutely nothing to do with the way other people park around your car. Good idea though if everyone did it.

that's too high and too far in over the edge of wheel lip to be from the fusion. The door lines are too flat for a fusion to reach that.

Hour repair plus 2.5 paint probably. .5 to partial drop rear cover, $75 to pull qtr glass, .5 to drop the rocker moulding. $5 car cover. If they won't go for that go elsewhere.

I'd ******* kill the guy if I found him before my brain even had a chance to stop me. That's my hot button there. Sorry bro that sucks.

if you park in a lot like walmart the most times the you'll get door dings is when the wind catches the door causing it to fly open. I also try not to park next to two door cars cause the doors are longer and I also look for kid junk in the seats.

I watched a lady put her cart in a random spot in a Wal-Mart parking lot instead of thw corrall. As she was walking back to her car the wind caught the cart wizzing it past her.... right back into her car. I feel it was instant karma and the damage was pretty good too.

yeah i park no where near any other car and if i do its beside a curb and I'm super tight to it. Really sucks and hope you can get it fixed, however i don't think it looks like a door ding. more like someone stabbed it with a screwdriver or key.

Most people have no respect for their own property or themselves, thus they don't care about your stuff either. I sat in my car one day waiting to give someone a ride when some fat fack let his door fling into mine and then had the nerve to look at me as if I was the one who was wrong. Luckily that time it was daylight, people around, and I didn't want to dig a hole.
