I purposely park in areas of the lot that don't have concrete curbs and if I can't avoid it, never pull UP to the curb, but WAY SHORT of it. Of course, that exposes the rear end a bit, but so far, so good. [;)]

I've had to get used to not pulling all the way up as well, but I find that the SLK is so much shorter than my old CLK that the rear end actually doesn't stick out of most parking spaces, even when I wind up with a few inches between the bumper and the curb or barrier.
It's been kind of amusing to watch the SL600 owner at work learn not to scrape his bumper too. [:)] Of course, he's got more length (of car) to worry about, but he's been getting better at it!
