Unhappy Door Dents...

Yesterday evening i had all the dents from my car removed from every panel..

Today...just changed the oil and found a new fresh dent in the door...

I used to have a rubber strip on my Corrado to stop ***** from hitting there doors in my car when parked...is such a thing avaliable for the Subaru?

Anyone have this fitted?

yep,Ive seen these on a car and they made it look older (or something weird).
The panels and paintwork are a little soft on these cars IMO,they very easily dent.
