ABSTRACT:
An apparatus used to protect a motor vehicle has a slim line housing placed below the rear bumper of a vehicle where a cover or screen is placed within the housing in an accordion-like fashion. An electric motor and roller belt assembly frictionally engage with the cover, acting to provide a force to aid a user in either the extension or retraction of the device from the housing. The direction of the electric motor and roller belt assembly is controlled from an extension handle attached to a forward portion of the cover.
