My secret--- I always park at the rightmost parking stall or park far away. Every time I take it to the dealer, like yesterday, I always ask the service manager to walk around and make sure it is returned as-is (ding and scratch free).

anyone else is still ding free? What's your secret?


Note that I am not anal as it is only a car and fully insured. I just take pride in ownership.
Ding Free too - 2009 Sport/Touring with 19,000 ... i do have small tiny chipz from the highway....

Secrets-

1) Nice wash and weekly coat of wax or touch-up spray
2) Park far away uphill
3) Back-up in parking spot next to a curb
4) Park slightly in a slant if no other alternative is available
5) Park at home in the Garage
6) Just say "NO" to Parking Garage's

Next plan: buyin an old Integra, CRX, Civic to use as my daily driver to and from work and using it as my grocery beater getter.
