Front Bumper Protector

AG23 · 10-09-2017, 10:07 AM

Hey everybody, looking for recommendations for a front bumper protector for M4. Car does not have a front license plate so cannot use bumper bully. I have one for the rear bumper that works well

What are you looking to protect from? Clear bra is pretty good and very tough for what it is.

I live in a building with a valet garage.
They park cars in rows of 3 and have to shuffle them in and out as people come and go.
Some of the workers are not careful.
Even with Xpel it may not be enough to protect it.

It?s not one of those license plate things, it?s one of those rubber sheets that hangs from the back when parked. It?s not like I drive around with it on...

Not to sound defeatist, but frankly, you are trying to fight a losing battle. You need to just accept that your bumper will get beat up. Just hope people realize it's a nice car and that they'll try to be extra careful.

Honestly, I can see the bumper bully things as an invitation to make contact with your car. They'd probably figure it's ok since you have that thing on.

Personally, I care too much about my car, which is why I'd never buy such a nice car to park it in the street and cringe when I see them there.

Good luck whatever you decide!

It's not going to get beat up because I plan on protecting it. I don't park in the street it's in a parking garage. I'm not putting these hideous things on outside of my garage, I have a reserved parking spot at my office and I'm careful where I park otherwise.

Rest easy fellas. You can install and remove in a few seconds. Its held on by hooks. OP needs a quick solution for HIS VALET IN THE GARAGE; he isn?t going to drive with it.

It?s not a question of if we read what the op wrote or not, still wouldn?t do it sitting in a pitch black garage... It?s okay if I don?t agree with you and op - I don?t want to deal with putting that shit on and off every single day... Its hideous as fuck on top of that, regardless of the vehicle is in motion or not...

Rather enjoy my car and not fret about dings... Sure it sucks, but I?m not going to give myself an ulcer over a car...

was going to say the exact same thing!

a quick walk around the car you will see damage. if someone hits your car, your camera will catch it. Problem solved, take it to a paint shop, have the bumper re-sprayed and pay with their money!

but I would clear bra it anyway, you would be surprised how well it can protect against parking lot damage. Better than repainting
