I had my Mojave for 3 days and I took the tops and doors off and set the back in my garage on the floor. My wife drives an Infinite QX30, it’s really short. Anyhow, my garage is pretty long so I had it in there on her side with plenty of room. The first time she left and came back she ran into it and scratched it all up along with one of the freedom panels. Worst part is she didn’t even realize that she hit it with her car. So when I discovered it in the garage her bumper was all up on my hard top f@ckin it up. I went to the Jeep dealership that day for the hard top paint touch up pen. Needless to say I wasn’t very happy.
Newlywed I see.

The only thing I dared put in front of my wife's car is my takeoff tires. I swear I just walked down and took these shots.

There is a phenomenal PDR technician down there. His company name is Dudes Dent Service. Tell him The Dent Geek sent you, he should be able to get you back to 100%

If you were in SE Michigan I would offer to fix it for you, but Nashville is a wee bit out of my range lol.

Just make up a bad-to-the-bones off roading story and leave it there.

Yeah, like all the jeep newbs with a dent on the cowl from taking their doors off and letting it swing too far open and the mirror hitting the cowl. Lol! Then putting some ugly RR rubber armor over that part of the cowl further drawing attention to what everyone knows happened. Just own the mistake, get it popped out if it bothers you and move on. We’ve all done stupid shit at one time or another. I know I have.

Tennis ball and string.

Amazon sells adhesive curbs.

I tried the sensor that glues to the wall and gives a green/yellow/red light indicator. Needed batteries every month. F that noise.

Thing is you don't need that in our garage as there is a ton of room, she just seems to go further in each time.

At least you didn’t back into a tree in your own driveway that has been there for years.
Bro. I can't get used to this backup camera. The depth is way different than my 2018 JL. It's definitely a trickster.

If I didn’t put the small hot spot mirrors on my side views I would have creamed a couple cars backing in on day one alone. The angles for maneuvering this truck are a bit tricky when ya come from owning a wrangler

Sometimes especially when in familiar surroundings, it's easy to not even look in mirror and camera. That sucks, musta ruined your day. That ain't a pop out.

100% avoidable accidents ate the hardest for me to get over.

I put a tiny dent right next to the top of the rear passenger door in the body two days ago with my lunchbox. I think it’s too small to even pull out.
You’d be surprised, I got hit with a shopping cart on my driver door the day I put my tags on. Was small but went to dent guy and for $75 and 10 mins of work it disappeared, definitely give it a try.
