Abstract

A vehicle protector utilizes a plurality of plastic sheets each having one surface thereof covered with a soft resilient material. The soft side of the sheets are disposed covering the outermost surface of the front fenders, the front door panels and the remaining side panels of a motor vehicle. The sheets are cut so as to have their marginal edges substantially conform to the marginal edges of the portions of the vehicle which they are adapted to cover. A pair of elastic bands straddle the front grille portion of the vehicle and are secured to the leading marginal edges of the pair of sheets covering the front fenders. Another pair of elastic members join the pair of sheets covering the front fenders, residing on the hood of the vehicle. Snap fasteners secure the trailing edge of the front fender cover sheets to the body of the vehicle adjacent the leading edge of the front doors. Another pair of sheets cover the front doors and are adapted with openings accommodating door handles and sideview mirrors. The cover sheets for the doors utilize snap fasteners to secure to the leading edge of the front doors and hook-like plastic members to secure the remaining marginal edges of the door cover sheets by capturing portions of the marginal edges of the front doors. A third pair of sheets cover the remaining side panels of the vehicle utilizing plastic hook-like members to capture portions of the marginal edges of the remaining side panels and a third pair of elastic bands, joining to each of the third pair of cover sheets straddling the rear portion of the vehicle.
