Rear bumper protection

[HollywoodDroid]

Hi chaps,

been looking around on the internet for some sort of a bumper protector so that it doesn’t get scuffed when loading/unloading stuff from the boot but the stuff is either cheap or just looks awful.
Any of you got anything fitted on their bumper for protection?

I fitted the genuine Audi bumper protection film 4 years ago, and it’s been just fine. Bought on eBay for a tenner from an Audi main dealer clearing excess stock . Clear polycarbonate, and you have to look hard to notice it. A bit fiddly to fit, so if you haven’t fitted protection film before, you might want to pay a professional. If you diy, ignore the instructions that come with the film and study/follow the guides on the internet. Secret is to clean well first and use plenty of water spray!

Don’t suppose you got a link to the product?

Go to a local vinyl/tinter business - they should be able to PPF the lip of the rear bumper or the whole thing - did this to our Q5 to prevent the top of the bumper getting scuffed by prams and general crap and has done the job the last 4-5 years!
