What's the best bumper protector for parallel parking?
#19
Today in the same spot I found two deep impact marks, again from the bolts of license plate frames at the same location, only this time they both ripped out about a qaurter sized chunk of paint, leaving behind the ripped up exposed plastic that the bumper is made of.
At this point I'm not concerned about looking ridiculous, or like a "douche" as a guy said on the last page. I'm more about taking a mother****ing hammer to every panel on this ****heads truck.
I can't prove it, either he did it deliberately to agitate me more, or people in this neighborhood are ****ed in the head. All I know is I'm going to come up with something, it's going to be huge, obnoxious, and super obvious when morons hit it. I don't care if it makes me look like some nutcase paranoid about his dirty little japanese fourbanger toyota-corolla-looking-thing. I'm keeping this car till I drop dead, it's not just some ****ing refridgerator to me.
That's in ONE night of parking, that is ****ed up, imagine another 365 nights like this. Luckily I can hunt down spots on my street where cars can't park in front or behind me, though they're not always available.

Is it just me or does this car look incredible?
As for you, OP. I deff understand what you are looking for. Coming from a native NY'er I feel for you having to park your car out on the street. In the city (NYC) it sometimes amazes me to see tons of brand new Mercedes-Benz, BMWs, Maseratis, etc all banged up on all panels from street parking. Cars from the city are ROUGH. 60k city miles is like 175k reg. miles.
You may want to try a search on Ebay, you never know what you can find on there. There is a strong possibility that you may be able to find several different things you can then fab together into what you are envisioning in your head. I wish you best of luck and post updates!
