Does this product protect against scuffing other cars if your door opens onto another vehicle?

First, let me say that I've had this protector on my doors for over six months and it still looks great... no fading, cracking, etc. I've bumped my garage walls a couple times and you can't tell... on either the door or the wall. I would think it would protect against scuffing if you bumped another car. Its a smooth, clear surface and unless you hit the other car hard enough to dent it, there would be no indication you had hit it or scuffing as far as I could tell. Haven't really field tested that!

I believe absolutely so, considering you don't forcefully slam it againt the other vehicle.

It's designed to, but it's only a narrow piece of thin clear plastic. I'd expect it to do OK in minor cases only

Yes. But you couldn't get crazy and expect it to protect against real serious damage. You probably would need to take old off and reapply after. I am considering color matched line-x to the underside of our odyssey van as it is very low and prone to scraping on curbs.

From my understanding this is more for glass. Supposedly if someone attempts to shatter a glass or hits strongly on the glass. I am not sure it would work on a regular door unless someone hit the door or garage door firmly.They have some just for doors by the same company.

Yes, but I did not like it. The clamps that clamp to your car at the top of the door frame, will scratch the paint. I went to AutoZone and purchased a roof rack. It came with cheap straps, but it will allow me to use my own straps. I hope this helps in your making your decision.

It does not it perfectly from edge to edge in my Sonata, but it is close. Does it keep the car cooler...it does, it also keeps the steering wheel from burning my hands. This is the first one I've ever purchased and I'm satisfied...just bought one for my wife's Kia Soul!!!!

Hello Dianne--It should. However, to avoid the hassle of having to return it. I suggest cutting out a piece of paper to the dimensions the give and tape itto the place you want it to be. This is protector is attached with an adhesive backing. Sort of like lining the kitchen shelves. Hope that helps. I am glad I got mine. I keep cars for longer than most people and I'm glad to have the protection.

No, it covers the top of the bumper like in the picture. When I load things, they are usually about level with the trunk anyway. I don't put things on the rearmost edge of the bumper and rotate it on that edge to get it into the trunk area. I have usually scuffed the top of the bumper when I push things in; so, this protector works well in that aspect. Otherwise, it is still in great shape.

I have used it to protect the front of my Lexus during trips from Ohio to Atlanta and am very satisfied for temporary paint protection. For the low cost to buy it, I like it. No paint damage.

I would say yes. Fits great on my Chevy Silverado rear doors. Protects the entire door area. My dog can jump up on the door to look out the window and not scratch the surface of the door at all

We have used these door protectors on both our LS430 and GX470 - they work good but don't lower the windows when they are installed because it does scrape the tinted glass - my husband was none too pleased - so now we just don't lower those windows when dogs in back seat.

I believe there was a picture showing that the fit on the door entry sill. This is where you usually lift your legs over an in to the vehicle. These offer protection from that area getting banged up. Hope this helps

It has not damaged my doors and I have used it numerous times. Hopefully it will not damage yours.

Didnt work much for my car, i had a ding on my passenger door from hitting a pole and this didnt work. I ended up buying a new door from the junk yard.

If the door is made of wood it should protect from scratching. This product doesn't adhere well to non-wood surfaces (it's not made for that). Also, it will probably work best if you don't try to wrap it under the door. It adheres best to a flat surface.

It has not scratched mine. I take a small towel and wrap the straps where they lay against the car as an added protection . They have cushioned straps, but I just wanted to be safe

Thanks for the question Ross .. my understanding of this protection is like the warranty on a new car ... bumper to bumper. So yes it covers that aspect. Hope this helps.

No. It has solid colors on both sides. Just make sure you get one that's the right size for your car if you're worried about light coming through.
