Ping pong sized dent sounds like a trailer hitch got you. Unless you can prove who did it, all you can do is get it fixed and put it behind you. Sorry to hear.

I wish there was some kind of bumper guard that would deploy when you parked....a couple of steel spikes that deploy through the grill or something (ala James Bond)

I would honestly punch the window out or kick the door in and deal with the legal consequences - but I have a bad temper and low tolerance for inconsiderate people.

Just kill the other owner while you're at it.

You didn't see his other thread? He was asking for your place of work and your home address. I gave it to him.

Couple suggestions.... Break off toothpics in door locks; unscrew valve caps...place tiny pebble in cap...replace cap ; You probably can't do this one... but when I lived in townhouse in Ohio and next door neighbor parked in my spot... I backed my car up to his front door and pinned him in his house He never parked in my spot again.

I guess it's just another lesson learned, "never park your car on the street, especially with people you dont know".
