    Mine is definitely not a good example.

    Grubby inside and out. Scratches all over. Scrapes underneath (makes it difficult to get the skid plates off). Surprises me where it will go, but I always find out where it can't go.

    Now having been in the situation of driving in a vehicle going the opposite direction to one like that that sent a stone through the $1500 windscreen, I wouldn't recommend it. A quick scribble down of your number plate will likely see a bill in your letterbox.

    Para rubber for 3inch wide rubber strip. reasonably cheap, and more forgiving/flexible than the Bunnings edging.
    Having said that the garden edging should do the trick for your intended purpose Gibo
    I run 85mm rubber strip and regularly fold them up against the body without damaging either. That said I have also rubbed the vehicle hard on banks and stove in doors and wheel arches... OOPS
