My parking problems are solved!
We put the boat away today and Mrs. Kidder noted that we did not need our boat fenders right now.
Not only do they protect our car, they keep the adjoining parker from opening their door, so nobody will park next to us.

Yes, but it looks like you need to keep the windows down to use them.

I think you should make them a permanent addition to the Vette. Perhaps drilling them into the door?

This is just the Beta version, it's only had about three minutes of development time. After I manufacture some clips to fit into the window channel, I'll be all set!

No, he needs to mount some cleats to the door.

The only problem is you have to also mount some of those padlocks to keep someone from stealing your bumpers.

Just rent a skunk and tie him to the front with enough rope so he can cover both sides.

I suggest you put a large boom on the roof of your car that holds a huge anchor over the side of your car. Then put a sign that says; "park here, I dare you!"
