Boomerang shaped meta, to protect front bumper
 

I remember an after market part to attach to under the front bumper, boomerang shaped metal piece.

I have had the 25 years so it might of been long ago.

Is this ringing a bell, are they still available?

986 boxster lip kit and google?

Performance Products made them years ago, not sure the company even still exists.

Understand they are really efficient ensuring the entire bumper cover rips off in one clean motion when any edge gets snagged . . .

YMMV but personally would avoid.

Good luck :cheers:

I bought and installed a used boomerang guard several years ago and really like it. I think that the 'rip away' worry is a bit overstated.

I can snap and post a picture of mine here next week if anyone who has never seen one wishes to do so.

I'm curious.

Turns out that I took some snaps during the installation years ago.

You will recall that I mentioned that I had bought it used, so scratches courtesy of previous owner:

Forgive me, I can’t see what the benefits of that are supposed to be.

Thanks, makes sense.

Every scratch on the boomerang means one less scratch on the underside of the bumper cover.

I do understand the principle, but what harm does a scratch on the bumper do? Besides, the scratches remain invisible. At some point, a refurbishment will be needed anyway, as stone chips also leave their mark. Nobody would think of bolting metal plates onto it here either.
But I don’t want to go into that any further here ;-)
