Hello all,
I have a 2010 911 which I have to park on the street and twice in the past year have scrapes where people think they can get out past me and end up scratching the bumper and of course drving off as if nothing has happened. Come out again this morning and there is another one!! Can anyone suggest anything they have used for their 911 ?? Anything please....

Is the bumper protected with PPF? That's all I can think of to give some sort of protection other than stating the obvious....park off road if you can, which sounds like you may not be able to do, sorry if that's of no help.

The perils of parking on road are people not being honest and driving off if they make contact with your car.....that's society for you nowadays.

No PPF I`m afraid. The colour of the car is GT silver, so was thinking some small black tape - I know that sounds sh&t but its a short-term measure. Can get the bumper repaied for £330 quid!. Like you say there are a few undesirables who dont care about other peoples kit. Cheers.

Leave it and repair it when you can guarantee a better parking spot. It will only happen again.

It's an issue with Sports cars, better when I had an "Impact Bumper".

Other thoughts:

- Get some small cones (go in front)
- Add bumper strips
- Hang bump stops from engine lid/ boot lid
- Pick a better spot

Found this Car Bumper Pads
