I have not had a door ding yet... but I feel your pain. I park like an idiot because folks won't treat my cars like I do. They don't see them as we do (car guys). But I have repect for all forms of property and treat them as they were my very own. I don't get it. It only makes sense to be careful around other peoples stuff. I dread the day when I see a door ding. I like to drive my car any chance I get... but the parking is nerve racking
