I am of average height and weight for an European adult male.

I am a very careful and alert individual, fully autonomous, neither physically or mentally challenged, not drunk or anything. I never had such issues.

My shirt ripped in that place and I have a cut which goes beyond the skin above 6 cm long and 2-3 mm deep. Drops of blood all over the white shirt.

My goal is to make them either to mark dangerous parking slots as unavailable or post parking instructions, and for the long term to permanently fix this issue.

Second goal: what do you think I should settle for for this?
I am not a litigious person, but this is not acceptable to swipe under the rug with an apology.

thanks
While I certainly can empathize, it doesn't sound like you suffered an actual injury that would be worth anything even if you are litigious. I do not think an expectation of financial settlement is reasonable here.
