The front of my Prius gets more nicks, scratches, dings, than any other car I've owned. It's a combination of cheaper / softer paint, and being lower to the ground. But the front is the only place I have nicks. Thankfully. I never park near any other cars in a parking lot.
Well thankfully thus far I have no dings on my 2016 yet As far as I can tell. But yes I agree wholeheartedly, and my wife hates me for it but I to always park far away from the crowds in parking lots. Door dings suck! Even though I have the moldings I still don't even want them dinged up either.
I'm trying to come up with something to stick on the two black plastic pieces, that cover the fog light holes.
