body side protection for 2005 WRX Sportwagon?
After 3 1/2 years of drooling and 6 months of hanging out on various WRX sites, I finally took the plunge and am loving it. However, this car, like many others nowdays, has no molding on the doors to keep the SUVs away in parking lots. Has anyone seen a solution? (temp or permanent)

One effective method is to park farther away from where everyone else likes to park. You reduce your chances of getting dinged and the extra 30 yards of walking is good for you. Not a guarantee, though - there's always some idiot who has to park right next to you when there are dozens of empty spots nearby.
