Put a bike inner tube on their muffler tip, and zip-tie it or something to make sure it stays.

Won't solve your problem but it will be hilarious.

In all seriousness, do you have any proof it's them? Otherwise they might just say "You have no proof" and tell you to shove your complaint up your arse.

How well do you know your neighbors? If they seem like real jerks you might not get anywhere with it and they'll just continue to do it. If they're more nicer people then you could talk to them about it and tell them to be more considerate.

Thanks for all your input. I'm still debating whether I should say anything at all.

I have no "actual" proof but I leave my car at home on weekdays and commute by bus. When it's parked, I fold my mirrors in and make sure that I'm parked straight and in the middle. I give it a "walk-around" before I leave it for the week. So before I unfold the mirrors and drive on the weekend, I do another walk-around to make sure nothing's changed. Yes, I'm pretty anal when it comes to dings and dents. I know it can't be helped.
I don't talk to my neighbors much. I used to greet them with a hello, but they don't reply back except for the mother of the family.

That inner tube was pretty funny. I can't believe I wasted 3:39 of my life watching the whole thing! It was a good laugh though.

Cant stop laughing!

yarisugi - In all seriousness, you should approach them and bring it to their attention.
I mean, they are not like neighbors in the past where they would acknowledge you, have a chat w/ you, watch your house while you were away, etc...

I give the finger to some of the people in my neighborhood because they come close to running over kids playing near the sidewalk doing 20-25mph in the area...people JUST dont care about one another...and neither should you about their feelings if they happen to be dinging your car's door.

Thats my experience on it.
