BumperPads or Car Bumper Guards??? Which do I choose?Drive around any urban center and you are bound to find a few vehicles with ugly looking rubber bumper guards mounted on the corners and/or smack in the middle of the vehicles bumper. While these rubber bumper guards may appear to add a degree of protection to your vehicles paint, this is not always the case. Rubber bumper guards can also permanently damage your delicate painted bumpers when the guards is struck – by a wall or another vehicle – such as occurs during parking maneuvers. When the rubber bumper guard is struck the impact of the collision indents the bumper skin, leaving the outline of the bumper guard permanently stamped into your bumpers paint. You will only notice the damage once you remove the rubber bumper guard from your vehicle’s bumper. So, not only do rubber bumper guards look ugly, but they can also cause more harm to your bumpers than good.
