## Description

This Door Edge Guard is made from Xpel's rugged, clear, 8 mil polyurethane paint protection film, employing a clear coat finish for maximum shine and durability. Once applied, this material is virtually invisible yet helps prevent chipping, scratching and scuffing to the vulnerable areas on the door edges. Disclaimer: Do NOT install XPEL film on Porsche Headlamps, it can cause issues with delaminating.

Review: Great car door edge, protector - I always use this to replace my car edges once a year easy to install and easy to remove that. Here’s very nicely and is durable and fits well cause you can cut to the length desired easy install installation.
Review: So far it's staying put and working well - We bought this for my wife's car. I didn't even know this existed, except I noticed it on my car, the same year and model as hers, but purchased at a different dealership. So we added this to her car to protect the door edges. I was expecting it to fall off after some time since it's basically just sticks on with an adhesive, and we live in central Florida where the sun and heat are brutal in the summer along with a lot of heavy rain. She parks her car outside during the day when she works, so the car is exposed to all of this, and so far (after 4 months) it hasn't started peeling off yet, so hopefully it will continue to last. It was easy to apply -- simply cut to length and stick it on the front edge of the door, then wrap it around and push it down as you move from top to bottom. I had to peel it back a few inches and try again a couple of times while trying to following the curves and folds of the door's body panel, but I was ultimately able to get it on with no folds or bubbling. Since it's clear, it's barely visible unless you look carefully once it's applied.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I live in Las Vegas. How well does this product hold up in xtreme heat, parked outdoors, no car cover?**
A: Live in NE, had product on my car almost 2 years (including many 90 degree summer days) with no problems

**Q: What is the thickness**
A: It’s a nice medium gauge tape.  With a steady hand I am very happy with the products,  saved myself $175 over a detailer doing it.

**Q: i bought this for my vehicles and on my honda civic because of the lip on inside of door it wont stay on.do they make some a little wider?**
A: XPEL Clear Universal Door Sill Guard (60" x 2.75") Paint Protection Film Kit

**Q: Does this product protect against scuffing other cars if your door opens onto another vehicle?**
A: This product protects the edge of your car door against nicking the paint if you open it up and hit an object. It may protect another car if it lightly hits the car next to it. That is why I park away from other vehicles, I installed the protector on my car to keep the door edge from getting nicked when I open the car door when I park in my driveway next to my house.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great edge protection and easy install
*by M***S on July 22, 2026*

Love this stuff! I originally thought it would be a real pain installing it but boy was I wrong. Easy install and looks great! The edges on one side is a little rough but I just put it on the inside edge. Sticks well to the car and forms to the curves well.
