Flyers on cars give damage estimates

I give the people at Mobile Appearance Reconditioning Services (MARS) credit for trying a different approach to the whole "stick flyers under windshield wipers" idea, but I still don't think it's such a great concept. Rather than just place some generic slip of paper on people's windshields, they actually found cars with minor damages and left an estimate for those people. That's nice and all, but I think people are so conditioned to just tearing those slips of paper off their car and throwing them away it doesn't really matter what you print on them, or how "different" you try to make them. Flickr user Greg Vision has an image here.
