A few years ago I used to see this guy on Brighton who'd drive a few blocks to do grocery shopping in his Diablo.

Realistically, you're just as likely to get your car dented by SUV doors in suburban parking lots. It's life.
I don't think it's quite the same. I don't know why anyone except for cab drivers and bus drivers drive in the city. I've seen how people there park by feel and can't understand the people driving all of their big expensive cars in and parking them on the street. People in suburban parking lots don't usually park by feel

People suck. Glad there was no damage to your pain. Too bad you have to spend money again for redoing xpel
