They've been a Ford Focus option since 2012, you might be able to retrofit to a Hyundai if you're willing to cut holes in your doors to fit them  :link: Ford Door Edge Protector should make scratches history | Expert Reviews (http://www.expertreviews.co.uk/cars/24404/ford-door-edge-protector-should-make-scratches-history)

I can't really see the point. If you and your passengers are careful opening your doors you shouldn't need them. Not being a smart arse, but it's other people's doors that usually do the damage.

If you have a narrow garage, some strategically placed foam on the walls is a good idea (as Craig and others on here have done) :cool:

Clear is a good idea. I've seen a few cars with black or white ones which look naff (ugly)  :spitty:
