I was parking the ST, head first, in a parking lot right next to a building. The building is made of cinderblock, painted white. There happened to be "decorative" cinderblocks, which look like pillars, on the side of this building. I judged the distance to the building correctly, but these decorative cinderblocks jutted out more than I thought. I drove my ST into one of these columns, right next to the license plate on the front bumper.
I stopped just as the ST touched the cinder block. I have multiple divets in my front bumper with white paint imbedded in them. I tried to wipe it clean with quick detailer, hoping it was just a little paint marred into the ST, but it was really pushed into the bumper. This thing is either going to need to be painted, or I should just try to find another front clip and get it painted and swap the parts myself to save some $$$.
Anyway, I feel really stupid. This is the first time I ever hit something in 16 years. Suggestions appreciated. The "damage" is easily noticable looking at it. The pic makes it look like it's not that big of a deal. But, it is.
