Though popular briefly they quickly fizzled.

Main reason: people quickly realized/experienced if you accidentally pulled too far over a parking curb or for some other reason got a piece of their bumper cover in contact w/ anything, the 'boomerang' facilitated prompt ripping and/or removal of ENTIRE bumper cover. As opposed to possibly having no or limited damage from what otherwise would be minor incidents.

Good luck
