I believe what he means is "If you're more careful and don't slide things across the bumper, you won't have to spend £57".. :)

I was looking at these too there are two types and the other one is £49 apparently it doesnt have a lip It is a pity they dont show it fitted to the Omega though I would like to see how far it goes across the bumper

Opps didnt read it that way - thought dbug had seen cheaper one's - thanks Aaron

Anyway like the look of them as well as the protection.

How is a scuffed stick on stainless trim going to look any better than a slightly marked bumper?
Why not get some thin rubber sheet, trim it to the shape of the bumper return edge, and stick it on? If your car is a dark colur, it won't even be noticable.
