Abstract:
The present invention provides a removable, padded vinyl panel to be fastened over the rear bumper of a vehicle, the intent of which is to protect the bumper from scratches, dents, and dings. Manufactured by the Motor Vehicle Parts and Accessories industry, Standard Industrial Code 3714, the Custom Bumper Protector is produced in a tough, durable, UV-resistant vinyl material, with an interior lining of impact-absorbing cellular synthetic foam. While the Custom Bumper Protector is manufactured in a wide variety of lengths and widths, depending on the model of car, pickup, van, or SUV being fitted, the basic model is tapered, incorporating two side panels approximately three and one half feet in length and approximately five and one half inches in width, which extend to cover the sides of the bumper; and a longer, wider, approximately five and one half feet by approximately nine inch panel which covers the rear of the bumper. The Custom Bumper Cover is equipped with a double-stitched flange, lip, or apron designed to slip under the vehicle's trunk-lid, which is closed in order to secure the Custom Bumper Cover, and the side guard sections of the Custom Bumper Cover fasten by means of VELCRO® equipped straps.
