ABSTRACT:
An automobile bump protector having a plurality of force-absorbing body portions with the body portions being flexibly joined together and being foldable relative to each other to form a compact package. The body portions in their unfolded state provide a side area having a length that covers the "bump area" of an automobile side panel and a width which is sufficient to shield the outward extremities of an automobile side panel from impact.
The bump protector includes a plurality of hanger straps such that the body portions may be suspended in an unfolded state adjacent to an automobile side panel to shield the side panel from physical contact. Magnetic members are associated with each of the body portions and the magnetic members of adjacent body portions are positioned to provide mutual attraction between adjacent body portions when the body portions are folded together to form a compact package.
