I was in San Francisco this weekend, and had parallel parked on the street. There were no parking lots available, and it looked like I had ample space in front as well as in back of my car.
Well, I just noticed that I have two vertical "creases" where I believe the rear license plate of the car in front had imprinted itself to the front bumper of my car
I wiped off the crud that was around the dents, but I can see that the marks are deep enough to notice from any angle. I bet it was the huge SUV parked in front. I really believe that it had enough space to get out, but sometimes, people don't care. They'll just keep backing up until they feel the bump. Perhaps the visibility is not that great also, since the car is so tall, and my NSX is so low.
I had my front repainted about a year or two ago, and now it looks like I may have to do it again, as well as some bumper work.
Well, I just needed to vent, as well as to let you all know to be aware of the risks you take when parallel parking.
Take Care,
J.
