Arrow Wth (static shock)

My damn car keeps shocking me with a bajillion volts of static electricity whenever I get out.

Where can I get one of those ubercool jdm subaru anti static pads that you touch before getting out of your car.

Yeah that happens when it's dry and windy. Jolted so bad the other night I swear I saw a flash of light. Made my arm sore. So what I've been doing is holding edge of the door as I touch the ground with my foot. I'm no physicist, but I believe it slowly equalizes the charges through the large contact point of the foot, rather than arc to the small contact point of my finger.

I noticed, if you can rub the car w/ your arm through a sleeve or some piece of clothing it makes it much less intense.
