Front Bumper Guard

Recommended Posts

FlexyFrame

 

I installed this over the weekend.

Rubber Front Bumper Guard.

http://www.flexyframe.com/

Saw it at the Auto Show. and laughed.

What's this do, Protect the plate. :hysterical3:

Spoke w/ the seller. And it made a lot of sense.

Give's me 1 1/4" of rubber before paint and grille.

 

Of course it wasn't a fit at first.

It works best on top screw frames. Fusion has bottom screws.

Emailed FlexyFrame.

Told me to use self tapping screws to hold the top .

 

Huh! Screws will mar my new paint. Not happening.

 

 

 

So I flipped it upside down and cut a small slit in the rubber to fit into the Ford tag tabs.

Ford Tag holder.

 

Fits really well and tight on top now.

 

I had another idea of a plastic pushpins through the tag holes if it starts to tear.

But so far, its great.

What happened to your license plate? Did you cut in half and bend it to left and right. ;-)

Nice :hysterical3: "sissy sticks"... Do the LEDS just glow or do they flash with your turn signals.... ;) :hysterical: :hysterical:

Sissie sticks! I'm watching you from now on... watching_zpsce276378.gif

Only the best for me, they flash and glow and everything!

Those are boat dock bumpers either side of my missing license plate (old picture).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Still J/K, the rubber license frame is a good idea, too bad they don't have white)

At least you can guess the edge of your hood.

.Are they on springs.

You should have upgraded and gotten the multi touch version.

Your License plate pads are a bit too much for me, though.

:poke:

Awesome. Unfortunately it still won't protect you from scrapes on the edges of bumpers from parallel parkers.

That's a nice solution. The only issue I see with that are the idiot people parking and using those to hit your car even harder. Best to avoid parking your car near crappy looking cars (people that don't care) and park close to nice cars, close to people that take pride in vehicle ownership.

It pretty thick from what I saw at the parking garage near me they would really have to bang into the car to cause damage
