^^I agree, I laughed when i saw it. First off i think its ugly and breaks up the smooth lines of the automobile. Secondly, I told my wife that this model care does not have that rubber strip on the bumpers (for some odd reason that is the only way she can distinquish them from each other lol)

 If you're going to insult a bumper protector, at least learn the name of the tape it resembles :PSay it with me, class: "Duct tape"... And that's $400 for PAINTED duct tape. It's special BMW paint, you understand. And special BMW tape! Honestly, what this does that a clear bra doesn't I cannot fathom. |

 Actually, in the U.S. there is now a brand called "Duck Tape", complete with the aquatic critter on the logo. I do agree with you though... when one word ends with the same letter that the next begins with, it is the first victim of the lazy tongue. What people are actually saying is "duct ape". This is a disrespectful reference to the brave men and women who install HVAC systems - and goddammit I won't stand for it!!
