Gator Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 I just ordered one of these Scion XB parts for my 2011 Edge. Thank you, OP, for finding this bumper protector. I hope it looks good on my silver Edge. I don't have any black accents anywhere, and my interior is tan. I have a German Shepherd that likes to leap in and out of the vehicle, so I was getting nervous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 (edited) I installed mine a few weeks ago, and it is already starting to come loose on the left side. I have about 9" of it that isn't connected anymore. During installation, I added a strip of double-sided tape all the way across the front lip just to make sure it was snug. I can see that rain water was been following the weather stripping around the back hatch to the back bumper, and water is getting behind the bumper protector making it come loose. Has anyone else had it come loose or used something special to connect it to the car? It has only rained on my vehicle 2 or 3 times and I've washed it twice.

Dingo Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Mine has the factory Ford "sticker" one. I don't get it. Do people really drag stuff along the bumper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingo Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Yeah, I'm not hurting, but that puppy is pricey. My weber works just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mockfish Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 Put it on my 08 MKX. Wasn't sure because the edge and MKX bumpers looked slightly different. It left a very tiny gap at the corner, but looks good and seems to hold fine. I bought some extra double sided tape, but decide I really didn't need any. I figure if it ever starts comes off in the future, I'll just alcohol swab it and put it back on. It's been on now about 2 months through lots of rain with no issues at all.

mkanoski@gmail.com Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 does anyone know if the scion bumper protector will fit a 2013 edge limited and what the part number would be. I am seeing 2 different part numbers in here I want the edge covered and the factory bumper cover does not cover that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitulu Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 Do any of you who have installed this piece have rear back-up sensors? Do you need to trim around the sensors to install the bumper protector? Thanks It runs along the top of the sensors and does not interfere at all.

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Added the Ford guard to our SEL today as I found it on Kijiji for $55 new Looks nice! I am thinking about installing moulding underneath the sensors on the rear bumper coz people in my area can't seem to resist making an impression on it.

wannabang Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 Thanks for sharing-I just got a used 2008 Edge-Dark Ink Blue Metallic, and rear bumper (and edge of bumper) has many scratches, tiny gouges, etc. This will cover and protect from future problems. Much appreciated. No way. I have a 2008 Ink Blue, too! Beautiful color, but I'm not conscerned with the amount of scratches, yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyK Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 I'm about 2 hours from Michigan and about the same to Buffalo. I think I'll keep looking for something local. I can have him ship it to me and then ship it to Canada, if you pay the cost. Thanks for the offer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Burdick Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) After scrapping the paint off the edge of the bumper on our 2012 Edge Limited, I purchased and Installed the Bushwacker model #114001 made for 08-10 Scion XB and it fit like a glove. Took me about 15 minutes to complete the installation. Love the way it protects the edge of the bumper.

Linkman Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 That looks great, Gary. Did you have any issues installing? Does the back edge cover any of the bumper cover fasteners? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacyon Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 note: I noticed on mine when I installed it (Scion XB unit) the center 24" or so is too close the curve of the bumper molding. In other words the inner curve or arc is shallower on the protector than the bumper causing the gap to not be uniform from the edges to the middle. I used a piece of metal forced into an arc that would correct the inner arc and then scored with a very shape knife until I finally made it thru the thick plastic of the protector. Worked nice, I then used several beads of black body trim RTV to secure. Been installed now for ~3 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
