Just wondering how serious you take it when you park your car? Ex. I park in a parking structure everyday at work. 6:30a-3:30p M-F, I park my car in the exact same spot right on the 3rd floor next to a pillar, (backed in mind you, so I can just pull out and straight down the ramp). No one can park behind me, just to my left and right. Also, where this pillar is there's a speed bump. So I park it over my line on the passenger side as close as possible to the pillar.

Being that I work at GM and drive my foreign Celi everyday into work, I don't want to accumulate anymore door dings or scratches.

So, is it bad to park your car unleveled like that? Especially for that amount of time?

WHen I used to work in at different city for GM, my friends and I would all park next to each other so we wouldn't get any dings or other damage to our cars. We'd always park hella close to each other since we knew we wouldn't get any dings or take up every curbed island. My one friend had a Type-R, the other a 94 TT Supra, amongst our other co-workers cars who had domestics.

Now that we're in the structure, my friend with the 94 TT parks it right at a corner where no one can park on this one side, my friends dads Z takes up one pillar like mine, and there's another Integra that's parked by a pillar wall also, etc.

I wouldn't mind parking "normally" but we always heard rumors of foreign cars/trucks being vandalized at GM. So far nothing bad has happened to my Celi. *knock on wood*

I should talk to people like that here and see if we can do something like that. There's a nice WRX, a riced out 240SX, a clean Integra GS-R, and a nice Subaru Impreza 2.5RS that might be interested in doing something like that.
