Another category of bumper protectors are temporary flip in and flip out bumper guards. These highly stylized bumper protection products are popular among new car owners because they provide temporary bumper protection when needed. You simply flip out the bumper protector when you park and flip it back inside the trunk before driving. It can’t get any simpler than that. Since these bumper guards are comprised of a rubber material they provide an ideal barrier to parking impacts, absorbing most impacts.
