Dents, dings and scratches still to worry about in 2013. Stoopid. Cars are trying to look so futuristic while the panels are still just crappy painted steel. They should be solid colored plastic or some kind of futuristic resin by now.
My time in boat building makes me wonder why they don't have a very thin honeycomb (silent and super strong) with a layer of plastic on each side for panels? If mass produced, I doubt they'd be much more expensive than pressed steel.
Look at this lunacy to protect the car from dents!
