I'm sorry to welcome you to the club. I actually saw a woman open her door up into my 01 CLS. I wanted to smack her so bad, but my girlfriend's cooler head prevaled. Unfortunately, I still have that ding and I get mad all over again when I wash the car.

People, listen up.


I was at a stop and shop and got an $850 dent from a shopping cart. I marched back in to the courtesy counter and pulled the manager outside. I got a check for the damages 3 weeks ago. Go after people or companies when they damage your car. While some companies have a zero liability in their parking lots, you can still persue damages and may convince them to pay for the damage if you can prove it was partially their fault. I took pics of the cart that hit my car, it still had my paint flakes on it .

I'm try and be sooo careful when parking somewhere, but that kind of shit is just unavoidable if you park in a public place. I busted a lady that slammed her door into a beautiful E320 in the parking lot. It was a beautiful thing...

Yeah right! The woman that opened her door into my car didn't have any insurance. Or course at the scene she gave the cops an insurance card, but when my insurance company investigated her insurance had been cancelled. Not only that, but she gave a bogus address. I had a police report that charged her, I had insurance, but the bitch got away with it. To add insult to injury her actions will cost me $100 to cover my deductable!

Be thankful you only carry a $100 deductable!

So far I have 4 dings on my driver's door and 2 on the rear left quarter.

I fixed already 2 on the pessanger door and I pretty gave up on fixing the reset!
