Bumper guards

Hey Everyone,

I live in Queens, NY. I have street parking, it's like a jungle out there. Just wondering, anyone here installed a front and rear bumper guard?

I'd appreciate any suggestions with pics.

+1! its a crazy out in NYC. Between the taxis, double parkers, and spot crammers we'd be better off with wrapping our cars in bubble wrap.

I got a Bumperbully Platinum with it adjusted so the bar sits on top of the bumper sill and hangs over. Its a great fit, works really well. The BB will mount to the carpet but if you pull REALLY hard you can rip it out of the car. (There was a string of users talking about BB being stolen in and around the city.) I'm mounting the straps to the body, under the spare tire storage area with self-taping screws.

And for the front, I got a Bumpshox 2.0. nice cushion but still able to see the plate at an angle.
