Recommendations for bumper protectors, sill scuff plates and other protection for TS?

[Goob]

In the process of life/family-proofing our Swace (1.8 TS). I fitted Toyota mudguards yesterday and now keen to get some protection on the rear bumper and other areas like sills, door edges etc.

Any recommendations for reasonable quality (preferably not too hideous) and sensibly priced options?

So far I've found these two bumper protectors:

Could also have a look at Automotiva UK who do bumper protectors, side mouldings, sill protectors ,etc:

I bought some self adhesive clear vinyl from eBay which I cut to size and fitted to the door sills to protect from scratches. Much cheaper, and more effective than the genuine Toyota offering

Thanks for all the suggestions. Went with the Automotiva bumper protector for £43.00 from eBay. Wanted (some) protection from dents as well as scuffs/scratches so seemed the best option. Fits well, seems durable enough - already had stuff dragged across it without harm - gives good coverage and has a centre-mark to help line it up. Outrageously expensive for a single piece of plastic and double-sided tape but still cheaper than most other options.

Still looking at sill protectors. Got loads of helitape in the workshop but as with the bumper I want ding protection too so would prefer something more rigid. Most sill plates seem more decorative than practical though so not sure where else to look. Maybe a combination of tape and plates.

Have you got a link for this? I’ll give that stuff a go first 🙂 I realise I could search but rather know it’s been good for others as well .

PW38202002 and PW38202003 appears to be similar but in the instructions https://www.toyota-tech.eu/aimuploads/6c0e75ca-2dbe-4e2f-b253-6a74dbeb4fa0/Corolla_TS_Sedan_Scuff_plates_PW382_02000_AIM_004_217_0.pdf

2002 appears as conventional and 2003 as hybrid. I’m assuming 2003 only fits hybrid TS?

Has anyone fitted the GR trim level front lower lip on the ordinary Corolla front bumber ?
I found a used one at a reasonable price and would like to buy it for a future replacement option ( in case I get bored with the current look ).
