FAQ

Will the Bumper Badger protect my car bumper from damage?

The Bumper Badger is designed to protect a bumper’s finish. While it may not protect your bumper from impacts greater than 1MPH, the product is designed to minimize the risk of scratches resulting from low-impact parking maneuvers. The Bumper Badger is not a structural component and will not contribute to vehicle crashworthiness or occupant safety during rear-end collisions.

Will the Bumper Badger fit any vehicle?

The Bumper Badger is designed to fit a wide array of makes and models, with the exception of rear-engine vehicles. Straps should never be placed inside an engine compartment. Straps could come into contact with moving parts, resulting in damage and injury.

Can I drive with the Bumper Badger attached?

No, it is not safe to operate a vehicle with the Bumper Badger hanging from your vehicle’s bumper. Always return the product to your vehicle’s trunk prior to moving your vehicle. Please read product disclaimer and all instructions before using.

What should I do if the Bumper Badger’s Velcro straps don’t stick to my trunk carpet?

The Velcro on the Bumper Badger’s strap ends may not stick to all carpet types. If this occurs, use the extra two Velcro tabs provided. Note that the extra sticky tabs provided will not stick to carpet. Instead, find a smooth, hard surface on which to apply the sticky tabs. Alternatively, if your vehicle features a spare tire compartment, it is possible to secure the straps into that compartment and lower the lid. The weight of the lid will sometimes be enough to hold the straps.
