A little extra protection for the rear bumper on my Wagon

I'm constantly loading and unloading things, does not look the greatest but at least will protect the top side of the bumper from scrapes and scratches.

I have an Xpel strip along the top of my bumper. MB makes an extension for the trunk mat that attaches to protect bumper as well.

My rear bumper is actually coated with 3M clear bra but it seems kind of fragile and I'd got a few small marks on it already so I saw the carbon fiber decal material in my garage that I used years ago for my GTO Dash and used up the rest of the roll.

I just keep a towel half tucked in under the carpet and flip it out to cover the bumper, because it's held in place by the carpet it doesn't fall out and ya just flip it back in when done..

I have a clear bra on my back bumper (wagon), but they also have a cover available that velcros (sp?) to either the existing carpet or the available rubber tray, which I have. I have a big dog, and the fold out cover is totally worth it.

P.S. A 140 lbs Great Dane fits great in the back of this car.

I've noticed some PPF installers will add an extra layer just in the high wear sections such the trunk loading area and behind the tires where road debris tends to get kicked up at the body. That way, when it does get some wear and tear, just that extra layer can be removed and replaced, rather than the whole panel. End result is a clean look all the time.
