Beware of acorns
I parked my 09 TSX under an acorn tree, and had dime size light acorns fall on it. It looked like I was hit with a ball ping hammer on the roof/deck lid. It is the same tree I have parked my Mazda 3s and Chevy Cavalier/Avalanche/Trailblazer under and not experienced any dents before. The metal is very thin. The car was only 2 weeks old and $450 later it was fixed. Acura would not honor it (I was not expecting them to, but it did not hurt to ask).

That Acorn was on a mission. What we like to say, "That Acorn Was Not F**king Around"
Sorry man. That sucks. Someone threw a non alcoholic beer bottle at my RSX when I had it.

Tough brake on your car though, the first 6 months is like having a new born.

This whole conversation about nuts made me think of this item that I heard about in a podcast:
