Not long after I bought my car somebody keyed it all down the side... Now that I'm about to repaint the car with kandy's and metalflake, I really want to do everything I can to protect my car. I mean, I'm spending over $600 just on the paint, and I don't want somebody to ruin all of my hard work in a moment. What could I do to keep my ride safe??

Thanks biggrin.gif

I go to several grocery stores every day during work (I work for Coca-Cola), and I am one of those people who takes up two spots!  They're so crowded that somebody will see someone doing something to your car, but not so busy that nobody will care if I take up two spots.  Plus, in two months of parking "correctly," even in the back, I still got several (and by several, I mean like 12) door dings in my car. 

Apparently, even if I park in the very back of parking lots, people will still park next to me.  Therefore, I just started taking up two spots.  I won't do it, though, if I go to Best Buy, or something like that.  I'll just park in the back, because for some reason, the people that shop there are more respectable towards other people's cars.

Cliff notes:  I park crooked every day almost everywhere because no matter where I park people will still park next to my car.  I'm a magnet to door dings.

Isn't it weird how that works...there's no-one in the area of the parking lot where I park, but I'll come out of a store and there'll be someone parked next to me...maybe to get a closer look at the car or something...who knows...

Happens to me..ALL the time..I am like..WTF! ARSEHOLE! there are 50 other FREE SPOTS! POSER!
