Rear bumper protector

Post by GT Guy »

I feel they designed this too small. Whould be a lot better if it covered the whole top of the bumper and maybe also extended down vertically.

I agree. I have the protector on my bumper and I still have to be very careful when I load my bike in the back.

I see the Matrix's rear bumper pad is larger, does anyone if this will fit the Vibe? it is also cheaper.see one here on Ebay:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... gory=33654

when i ordered and received my bumper protector, it was for a matrix but was in a pontiac/gm box....i think it looks larger on the matrix because their rear bumper is not quite as deep as the one on the vibe.

If that picture is of an actual Matrix bumper protector, that is NOT the same one GM provides for the Vibe. It will most likely not fit.
