Wife got dinged-but at least it's shiny!
Just got this pic from my wife. She was sitting in a parking lot (good thing she was still in the car) when a car pulled in beside her. Kid in the passenger seat throws open his door hard enough to do what you see below. 2006 Aucra RSX-S in Nighthawk Black Pearl. I guess she really laid into the mom. I haven't seen it in person yet, but looks pretty bad for a 'door ding'. Of course, just Sunday I washed / clayed and applied Zaino CS. At least it's a shiny dent....

Jim,
I think we're way past PDR. Still haven't seen it yet, but she said it's creased. Goes to the body shop on Monday (with special instructions from me about using a rotary on it). She said it was hard enough to rock the car - like the kid had kicked the door open.

I also thought it was the frame being bent there, So shiny. But damn it is a big dent, stupid kid that did this. No respect for other peoples property at all.

Whoa, that's from someone else hitting the car with their door? That's insane, I hope your wife tore that piece of crap a new one.
