Yeah, these are easily removable and replaceable.

That said, the placement and angle of the damage looks like a door ding from a tall vehicle.

Those door handles are about $290.

Our 2020 was produced on 7/19 in Stuttgart, Germany. We live in NE USA.

I know its not practical for most owners, but this is why I prefer to park my car away from others to avoid hassles like this.

Generally speaking most "other" car owners dont care when they open their door to get in or access the door to place their kids inside it.

Hell, when I got my coupe, even I accidentally flung the door open not realizing how long the door was. I actually did hit another car, incredibly no scratches on mine, but it did leave a mark on the other car.

I swear there is this one fuktard who follows me everywhere with different car just so they can park right next to me 10 mins away from entrance door.

You will always get these a-holes that do this. Just keep trying to park in visible but remote far away places. I never park close to a shopping centre. For me its no big deal, less than 60s extra walk time. Im fit young and healthy, so that helps I guess.

If all else fails, invest in a dashcam to see what really is going on and who is parking near you, it may just be an admirer?. I have mine on 24/7.

Mind you the one time I didnt check it, someone stole one of my tire valves. lol. Big deal you may ask? It was an OEM Mercedes. I bought a new set, but the same type. I figured, its probably going to happen again lol.
