Haha, well, fair enough, I guess... as long as you're not taking the last two spots at the mall, ruining my Saturday, I suppose

No dents, but a pretty good ding on the rear bumper where I backed into the metal beam on the wall in the parking garage at work. Front lower grille is missing it's chrome trim bit from when a tire tread got thrown into the front of my car on the freeway, but no dings or chips from that (miraculously).

I have a 2010 S front bumper to install once I get the correct carrier for it. When I paint that I'll repaint the rear bumper too.

I have no dents, but I did catch a rock on the freeway, so I have a little chip in my windshield I have to get fixed. Hoping insurance will cover it.

I have a dozen chips, couple minor scratches here and there, nothing dented badly so far. Caught a rock right under windshield wiper chipped black plastic and marked windshield. Tiny crack but need to look hard to see it. 2009 Cooper 55K since new.

A few tiny dents that don't bother me too much but 3 small nicks in the wind screen directly in my line of sight that I'm told cant be sealed cause they're not split or cracked. Agravating!
