WTF??
Just noticed this on the Miata, I've hardly been anywhere with it, must have happened in my driveway or a grocery store parking lot.  Hard to get a good picture because of the reflections, but 3 separate dings on the trunk area and a scuff on the spoiler.    Did someone drop stuff on it?

Man that sucks, it does look like something fell on it to me. Wasn't it in your MIL garage for the winter? That's the first suspect I'd have....  ::)

hard to say, what section of the hood?  maybe something higher hitting, small bump from a hitch?

I had to change the battery and it's right there in that quarter, I would have noticed. (It was my first thought though)

The three dings are in a row, one is right up in the middle on the panel in front of the trunk, so not just something that bumped into it.  I think someone whacked it with something.   I vacuumed it last week, including the trunk, it had to have happened after that.
