Hi,
Someone hit my rear bumper at the parking lot during lunch hours. I came back and found there is a nail poping out from my rear bumper. Is this serious? Is it possible to cause any structure damage?
Why would nail pop out?
Thanks!

No serious parts damaged, I think.
I would take this matter to the police!
But if you know better...

I would say that you car has been shot with a nail (rivet) pistol.
You got shot!!! That is deffo from a rivet gun. What sort of parking lot? Any construction going on around you? This ALMOST looks as if it had been done intentionally. Bizarre.

So that isn't an example of "option 007 -- nail-bumper" that's only available outside the USA? I think it works in conjunction with the PDC sensors to prevent other cars/objects from hitting you... 
If that's not what it is, then I'm sorry that you got shot with a nail/rivet gun.
