Personal choice? Each to their own?  ;)

...... if i can get them here i will put some on my Forfour.

I found those on Ebay.co.uk.  but the postage to you was waaayyy too much.
(They do them in 2 sizes/length's...510mm + 370mm)
So I next checked Ebay.co.au   found the self same items, and from same
peops in the uk...mega expensive...as in $65.59 for the 370mm ones !

If you are not fussed about them being exactly the same as Brab's has
fitted to his, then have a looksee at all the one's that you can find on
ebay.co.au
http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_odkw=car+bumper+guard%2C+rubber&_sac=1&_osacat=131090&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR2.TRC1.A0.H0.Xcar+bumper+protector.TRS0&_nkw=car+bumper+protector&_sacat=131090

These might suffice:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2pcs-Black-Car-Auto-Body-Guard-Bumper-Scratch-Protector-Strip-New-/151433571580?hash=item234224ecfc:g:WjsAAOSwT5tWQZ4h
Or...
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/4x-Car-Front-Rear-Bullet-Bumper-Protector-Corner-Guard-Scratch-Sticker-Strip-/131701452183?hash=item1eaa04ad97:g:xSAAAOSwys5WUuIj

I know they're not to everyone's taste...it's a matter of personal choice.
