Car door guards are one way to help protect your car from the dings and dents of parking near other cars. When making the decision to buy car door guards, you need to consider a few things. First, you need to decide if you would like a door guard that is painted to match the colour of your car. Most car manufacturers offer original parts that you can purchase long after you buy the car. If you do not need a door guard that is painted to match, you have quite a few other options for door guards and must consider the type of guard you want.
 
There are a few different types of door guards: edging, rubber moulded guards, which are applied by adhesive, and magnetic door guards, which are placed every time you park. The type of door guard you choose depends on your needs, including whether you would like to add to the appearance of your car. Finally, you need to decide how you want your door guards attached to your car. There are both removable and permanent options, depending on your plans for your car.
