My Paint Protector!

Just wanted to show off my newest and favorite tool in the garage. It is what I call the Save-A-Body-Tron 5000!

I purchased mine for 3 easy payments of $19.95!

Check it!

Ok enough with the lame jokes. I purchased a fun noodle at the dollar store for $1 and made this my most prized possession. I was always SO SO careful getting in and out of my 135. Now I can relax knowing my Save-A-Body-Tron 5000 will save my paint!

I actually just put a few layers of sticky window/door insulation tape on the wall near mine....beats having to worry about dinging your door.

You should mount them onto your doors to get ding protection everywhere you go.

Yes, I agree... a great idea, right above the shoulder line. Great way to prevent Mr dent doctor visits.

I knew a guy at my old job who kept two 6-foot long 2x4s with J-hooks on 'em in his ancient station wagon to protect it from getting dings: He'd hang the 2x4s on the door handles on each side once he was out of the car.

Bizarre thing was, he never ever washed or waxed the car.
