ABSTRACT:
A vehicle side bumper or protection device is provided to protect the sides of vehicles such as automobiles against the violent impact of carelessly opened doors of adjacent vehicles parked too close. The bumper or protection device includes an elongated cushioned pad which covers a substantial portion of the automobile side and resists the impact. The pad is releasably secured to a front side portion of the automobile and inside the trunk by a pair of straps and a locking bar. A first strap extends forwardly from the pad and is secured by a hook to the front end. A second strap extends rearwardly from the pad and is secured around the locking bar by a buckle. The locking bar maintains a bias fit against oppositely disposed inside side walls of the trunk. When the trunk is closed and locked, this arrangement makes the bumper or protection device theft resistant. A pair of these protection devices can be used to protect each side of the vehicle.
