Well the car is only two months old and it finally happened! You always expect that first door ding, cring when you get it and then life moves on! This weekend someone backed into the front of the car when it was parked and knocked the front plastic cladding off the mounts! The force was hard enough to even pull one of the fog-lights out of the socket.
We took the car to the local service center and they were able to remount the plastic and replace the fog-light. Thank goodness for the lower labor costs in Korea, the whole effort was only about $150 US.
With the deductible on the insurance it was not even worth filing a claim. Waste of an entire day!
What really got me was the fact some knucklehead hit the car and did not even have the courtsey to leave a note.
Still no door dings yet! Hopefully that was the worst of yet. (Yeah, Right!http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif
