I came up with this to keep the wife and kids from nailing me in the garage when she parks next to me ...
Too bad it won't fit in the truck for road trips ...

If you just lop off about 6" of height, you could sell millions! Some of those low slung door swingers might sneek under it otherwise.
Very innovative work there, Jeff! Perhaps you could create a collapsible version that folds up and can be stowed in the trunk. Who knows? It could be the next greatest invention! How about inflatable pillows that have a magnetic strip that holds them in place? Worth a shot, no? You could pitch the idea at a car show, where most guys would buy anything that would protect their investment.
I can tell you love your car!

Hmmm nice idea. I need to come up with a similar thing but mind has to cover more of the side. My car unfortunately will be in the driveway with 2 satan's minions (kids) running around the car!!

Writing licence plates seems like quite a bit of work.....though, it'll help track the guy who left you the ding. I prefer to park away from other cars.I'd love to double park, but I'm afraid that will **** someone off enough to key my car ("you think your car is so great it deserves two parking spots" sort of thing)
Also, I'd love to have a lift in the future. I think you can get one for between $3000-$5000?
With all the positive feedback that I have received, I have been working on a improved version, which will be marketed as the Protector II series.
It will retract under the car when not in use. With a push button switch, mounted on the dash, it will extend out automatically. The Protector II series will have optional drivers door protection too. Pictures to follow soon.
If you would like to be the first in your neighborhood with a Protector II, leave me a post...
This is a limited offer...

I’m employing a bouncer to guard my car when ever I’m away.

Hey Ryan, are you going to post pictures of your car? Your sig says you got it Friday. I checked your posts, but found no pix. What are your impressions of the car?

I don't agree. Accidents happen. Even I have had a door get away from me and hit another (and I am super careful). If the bumper saves one ding it was worth it. It would make my wife more comfortable. She accidentally spilled a pepsi in my last Mustang. She started crying. Not because she was "afraid" of what I would think, but, because she knew how much the car meant to me and it made her feel bad. Pepsi cleans up, dents are hard to fix.
