Rear Bumper Protection Trim — Ford Transit Custom 2022+

The upper ledge of a van's rear bumper takes the worst of it. Every pallet and crate dragged across the bumper leaves a scratch. This trim covers that whole surface and takes the damage instead of the paint.

The supplier states that the part is made of a flexible material and protects the upper section of the bumper against scratching during loading and unloading. The photo shows a black, matt panel shaped to the bumper, with an anti-slip tread-plate pattern and an embossed TRANSIT logo in the centre.

• Protects the bumper paint from scratches during everyday loading

• In the photo: an embossed TRANSIT logo in the middle of the trim

Fitting and notes

The supplier gives no fitting instructions and does not say whether fixings are included — check with the seller. Trims of this type are usually bonded with double-sided tape, so the bumper has to be washed, degreased and dry, and bonding done above freezing.

The supplier's record is inconsistent: the short title refers to a front splitter, while the body text and part number refer to a rear bumper trim. Confirm before ordering that this is the rear part.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a front or a rear trim?

The body of the supplier description clearly refers to the upper rear bumper and to protection during loading.

Does the bumper have to be drilled?

The supplier does not say. Confirm the fixing method with the seller.

Is the surface matt or glossy?

The description says gloss black, but in the photo the trim is matt and textured. This needs clarifying.
