 Battle Scars: Dings and Scratches

    click for a larger image
You can ignore the salt from driving through the snow and focus on the horizontal scratches on the corner of my right, rear bumper. I came out of the grocery store one day and noticed it. I guess someone accidentally bumped my car while parking or something  

I got this ding about a year after the other one. During this year, two people also dinged my car, WHILE I WAS IN IT. One was by a middle aged man who didn't seem to care at all. The second one was by a lady getting out of a cab in the middle of the street during traffic hour and she wacked my car REALLY hard, then grinned at me and ran off. I don't think she left any damage though.  

I scratched my left rear wheel well when driving in my Evanston apartment's (2000) parking lot. For some reason there were a ton of illegally parked cars and I was trying to make my way around a building support pole and through a small gap. I think my car would have fit if I had been in the right angle, but I wasn't and I couldn't get through. I thought that I had stopped before my car touched the pole, but apparently I hadn't. There's some salt blotches on the car, but the scratches are the very white horizontal scratches.  

I got this ding quite a while ago and was my first noticeable scar when my car was less than 2 years old. And it wasn't just a dent, it also left a small white mark. It really annoyed me.
