Question Re: bumper pads? scratch prevention

It seems to be a good idea to protect your car for valet parking garage. Do you plan to keep putting it on/taking it off everytime you in/out the garage?

Which cars in NYC are without dings/scratches in the bumper? Sooner or later...

How's about paying a little more money to rent the fixed spot in your garage and park by yourself if they have one?

yeah, i'll put and take them off myself, a pain but better than the alternative. there are no fixed spots where i park, acually the only fixed parking placed in my neighborhood are the outdoor places, all the indoor one are underground where only valet guy go.

I have a rented spot in my garage and don't let the valets park for me, but my rear bumber gets scratched from people doing 3-point turns in only 2-points

I don't have my TL yet, and as much as I don't want to do it, I bought some clear vinyl stick-on bumper guards that I'm going to put on the rear bumper when I get it.
