this guy has the right idea
i was waiting for my car in one of the garages in manhattan when i noticed this beautiful cls55. the guy made the smart move in getting these parking bras/bumpers to protect his front and rear. only thing i wasnt crazy about was the tint job, the shop left a cutout in the rear windshield for the brake light.

too many to list
smart move, i guess it just protect against bumping into the wall or someone bumping into you? I've seen those yellow door ding preventers also...this one is more discreet. I like it.

yeah they are mainly to protect the bumpers while the attendants are moving the cars around and to prevent those nasty holes from the screws holding on other cars license plates. they are cloth with padding and are attached with velcro, they actually looked kind of loose.

Looks like somoene took the poor CLS hostage and blindfolded it. Sad. Very sad. Hope they can negotiate for it's release from that dark cell they are holding it in. I don't know why they didn't blindfold the car next to it - they must be planning to kill that one since it can identify it's attackers.

s-class - not infiniti
umm looks pretty clear to me - it's a blue S-Class - most notable by the wheels. No way it's an infiniti, they'd never disgrace a beautiful CLS like that! =)
