You can channel your inner 70s and go with curb feelers!

 

Honda sells these, OEM. But you would just end up scraping $300 instead and the install does not look too fun.

 

Wow. I believe the front bumper cover is less than $300! May as well just replace that!

 

Protecting the Bottom Front from Scrapes

Anyone have suggestions for protecting the car from. The scapes of parking? The Insight is slightly longer then my husbands Nissan Rogue but his car is higher. If I get too close in parking spaces, the bottom hits the cement block and I hear a nasty scrape sound backing out. I’ve noticed that...

I feel your pain, got claw marks on mine in the same spot from curbing it somewhere, within a month of buying my Insight. 😔

 

Wondering if something like this could protect this area. I would re-paint area first of course. I'm not hitting curbs aggressively, but, I'm doubting this scratch protecting tape can work well. Anyone ever have experience with tape like this?

Paint protection film can protect from paint chips and light scratches. I doubt it's going to protect from scrapes because whatever you're scraping is going to cut through the film.

 

Don't mean to be flippant but, perhaps, not cornering so closely would help you!

Take those turns slowly, with a nice wide curve rather than hugging the right side!

I bumped my back tire on my first drives -- on a neighborhood tight corner -- got scratches on the wheel cover. I now am careful on turns -- and that intersection, corner in particular!
