i'm thinking of getting the rubber tray that goes behind the back seat to protect the carpet and getting the black plastic(?) rear bumper protector. my car already has scratches on the top of the rear bumper from my wifes carelessness
anyone have either of these in their car? what do you think/how does it look?

 

here is a thread on the rear bumper protector:

I ordered my rear skid plate, which is what Mazda calls that bumper protector, when I bought the car. I figured that the bumper will get scratched no matter how careful you are. They had to order it in and that took a couple of weeks. Go figure. Anyway, I know it is working as I've seen marks on it and we were careful putting stuff into and taking stuff out of the back. I love it and it looks okay on the vehicle.

I have my rear tray on order but in the mean time I am using a piece of tarp to protect the carpet.

 

I have the rubber cargo tray in my P5 and would say it is a practical addition to the car . Fits well and still allows the cargo hooks to be used.

 

the rear bumper guard came on my p5 from the dealer and at first i didnt like it, but when i ordered the wrong sized rims, it saved me a lot of scratches on my bumper when i sold the rims...i still think that i might take it off in the near future...

 

thanks for the replys guys. i think i will order both of them soon.

i had no idea that the boards here were so organized into so many different catergories. the other vehicles' boards i visit usually lump everything about that vehicle together in to one forum. i guess i keep the moderators busy.

 

The bumper guard definitely helps. Although it looks out of place on the bumper, it serves its purpose. Mine came with the car BTW.
