Ut Oh, Better Get Maaco...

Well It Happened...
My first DING –

Actually My first TWO DINGS simultaneously!

Yep, drove over 1,800 miles from Central New Jersey all the way down and around to the east coast of North Carolina and back without a scratch!

And then guess what happens…

I’m finally back home with my 1 and enjoying the whole 9 –
Interior and exterior washing, Complete detailing – wax, windows, tires, etc. etc.
Finished just in time before the storm clouds! No worry - that’s what the garage is for, right?

Long story short; while I was packing for the trip two weeks ago, I placed a wooden folding chair next to the 1 when I was looking for beach chairs and a cooler etc. (forgot to put it back)
As I’m pulling into the garage BAM; DOUBLE DING after an awesome detailing!

I was so pissed – Anyway the reason for this thread - Learn from my mistake!

The good news is that I found a guy named Eric that will come out to your house and remove ‘em. He took both of the dings out for $100.00 –

Not sure if these products work, found them on the internet tonight…

That's not a bad idea!
At the time I was madder with myself than the chair...

Nope - No pics. As a matter a fact the dings (more like tiny dimples) were not very noticeable at all.
But because I knew they were there I had too remove 'em.
