Sorry to hear about the dings. That said, are you asking if you should mess up their car, or did you already mess their car up? I sure hope you didn't touch their car. As for asking them to pay for something when you have no proof that wouldn't be right either. If you have proof they created the dings either by matching paint transfer, witness, or video, by all means make them pay. Until you have proof, don't ask them for anything and don't mess with their car. Only punks purposely vandalized someone else's car even if the other person is an A hole. Don't mess with another person's car period.

from now on park far far away from everyone else. i have one ding on my rear quarter panel from when I was down in Hickville Richmond Virginia...there were a bunch of drunk nascar fans at the hotel I was staying at. Somehow the Mecury SUV next to me not only put a ding in my car, they managed to ding it deep enough to almost completely puncture the rear quarter panel. It's like they did it intentionally. My advice: park away far away..or close to other luxury/ sports/ well kept cars. I tend to spot out the vehicles I know that are not driven by mindless door swinging zombies.

Mindless zombies
You can't have anything nice out here these days. Its bad enough if it at the mall, but when it encroaches to where you live, thats worse.
I had person do the same to my old Eclipse, after the door made contact, hell it looked like the shoved it on it so you could really see the crease. I don't condone violence, but cutting the valve stems sure makes you feel better.
I feel your pain Dabigman. $40k+ car and some jackass can't leave it alone. Hope you can get it fixed

I would at least talk to the guy with the Jeep, in a friendly manner of course, and say that if he did dig your car “accidentally” you would appreciate his being more careful from now on. Without proof, that’s about as far as you can go. And you’re giving him a subtle warning with the goal of preventing a future occurrence. Then get the dig repaired and hope for the best.
BTW, I do have these plastic stick on sheets that I got on the internet that match the color of my G35 that I slap on my doors whenever I know I will be parking a bit close to another car. After nearly four years (touching wood here) my doors are still virgin.

They are magnetic so you can just slap them on. I keep my pair in the trunk and use them as necessary.

I use the dingdefenders when I can't find a protected parking spot, e.g., an extra wide parking space or one at a corner of a lot that has no one next to me or some other barrier. I also never park next to two door cars, minivans, or big suvs or trucks, or people who are too far over in their parking spot. Bottom line, I'm still ding free after 10 months.

you probably live in an apartment that has assigned parking space so you can't park anywhere you want huh?
