Has anybody fitted one of these black ABS type bumper guards to protect the top edge of the rear bumper as you put things in and out of the boot. I regularly lift a lawnmower in the back of mine and think it’s only a matter of time until it gets scratched. I’ve attached a picture of one I have found on the net but does anybody have any recommendations please. Car is a 2018 model. There seems to be a couple of options and I have attached below. One from Kia themselves

One of those boot floor mats with the fold out flap that covers the bumper might be a better idea?

It’s also to cover some pre-existing scratches

Have you joined the "kia owners club" forum (https://www.kiaownersclub.co.uk/forums) ?

I've seen quite a few threads on there about boot and bumper protectors

Edit: I've just looked at the Kia forum, and I see that you, or someone with a very similar username, has asked this very question

Easy to fit and should do the job it’s intended for, no idea why the pic is 90 deg out though, it isn’t on my phone sorry
