Bumper Protectors

[Marukai]

I'm thinking about buying a bumper protector because I live in the city and parallel park quite often. Has anyone has any experience with any of these products? The reviews on Amazon look good so far.

The bumper bully seems of higher quality but both look hideous on anything other than what 'mad max' would drive.Neither do anything for the bumper corners though.
I did some looking,what about this.

What kind of message would that send to cars parked next to yours?

"That guy can't parallel park" mixed with "How long has that scratch been on my car?"

That bumperarmor looks slightly nicer; I'd have to disguise as a bra in front (a stuffed one

) and maybe some sort of cargo hitch/ bike carrier in the rear. That is, it should have some feasible purpose besides covering bumpers.

A stuffed bra? and they wonder why we refer to our cars as 'she'.

I think I would put orange cones around my car before I bought one of those!

My wife parks in Brooklyn NY. We have the bumperbully for her X3 It works well. It is not intended to stay on 24/7. It is secured by 2 straps. Open the trunk and flip it out
return it to the trunk when you leave. It works pretty well and would purchase again
