<p>Many of you weren't completely convinced with the video showing an Acura NSX getting slammed with a shovel. That really irked Mr. Doorpal. He's back, with a new video showing that no matter what part of the shovel you use to whack the Doorpal, it will still protect your mint 84 Lynx Diesel. We're glad that it's not <em>our</em> NSX he's using as part of his proof of concept demonstration, but it looks like it really does work. Thoughtfully, after all the demonstrations of how whacking the crap out of the Doorpal won't dent your car, he shows us a new way to slice tomatoes. We've come up with a recipe, we're calling it Doorpal salad. <br /></p><p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/06/video-acura-nsx-gets-whacked-with-a-shovel-part-2/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>VIDEO: Acura NSX gets whacked with a shovel part deux</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/06/video-acura-nsx-gets-whacked-with-a-shovel-part-2/">VIDEO: Acura NSX gets whacked with a shovel part deux</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Thu, 06 Dec 2007 13:57:00 EST.

Three times. The amazing part? It doesn't leave a mark because of a product called "DoorPal", which somehow protects the aluminum-bodied NSX from any harm. The <a href="http://www.doorpal.com/">company's web site</a> doesn't list exactly what the DoorPal is made from, but it looks like a heavy duty version of those floaty toys you lay on while sipping a drink at the pool. We're not about to see if one of those works just as well, but you're welcome to try. Check out the NSX narrowly escaping a beat-down <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/03/video-protect-your-car-from-door-dings-and-shovels/">after the jump</a>.</p><p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/03/video-protect-your-car-from-door-dings-and-shovels/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>VIDEO: Acura NSX gets whacked with a shovel</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/03/video-protect-your-car-from-door-dings-and-shovels/">VIDEO: Acura NSX gets whacked with a shovel</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Mon, 03 Dec 2007 12:29:00 EST.
