There's not much that can be done
Ladies and gentlemen,
Just remember that 50% of the world's population are 'mouth breathers' (if you know what I mean), or below average in mental capacity. You can do what you can in attempting to prevent clueless, non-thinking, people from mindlessly knocking their doors into your car, but it's never enough. Then in the mix of cluelessness, comes the vindictive 'I don't give a crap' people who out of jelousy, will go out of their way to inflict damage upon your car because of any minor efforts you may have made to avoid them.
I always try to stay low key. Luckily, my pony is not a daily driver. When I have to park her in a lot, I find spots where no one else can park next to it. I won't take two spots and I won't park on the edge of the lot either. I sort of like those magnetic guards; but, I see two problems: The guards may eventually put fine scratches into the clearcoat and two, they're like a bullseye for those looking to prove a point that they don't work.
Keep a St. Christofer medal (patron saint and protector of drivers) in your car. Make sure you have it blessed by your local priest. That's about all you can do.
