I feel your pain... After having my car for maybe a week (last Feb, right after picking her up brand new), I has some *ss rub up against the back right fenderish, right over the wheel well before the door. I was so pissed... Luckily, I had no dent, but they rubbed paint off in small patches right down to the metal... Since mistu has horrible paint, I had to have it touched up and luckily my bro had some friends help match it, mix it up perfectly and fix her up. She looked like new again after that and no issues since...knock on wood. I even park away from everyone...but every time I come out from a store, etc, there is always that one *ss right next to me. No pics, old news, but thought I'd join the venting...

Agreed.

You'll likely end up doing more damage then is there now putting chemicals on the paint or trying to stick a tool in the door and high spotting the **** out of the panel.

If you can't afford 75 bucks to do it right then maybe you should rethink your choice of vehicle

I had the same problem. My car is white and had a blue door ding...

A clay bar took off the paint, but as for the dent, sorry dude. I'd go to a shop.

These and other lesser known cars attract the attention regardless of where they are parked. It is odd to find a piece of junk parked next to a fairly nice vehicle towards the end of the parking lot 9 out of 10 times.

A second vehicle helps with taking the vehicle to more inconspicous places like Malls and Grocery stores.
