The Bumperdillo® Protection Plate is a genuine Volkswagen accessory designed to safeguard your Jetta or Jetta GLI’s rear bumper from everyday wear and tear. This self-adhesive shield boasts a durable silver finish that resists scratches and protects the paint.
What is a Bumperdillo® Protection Plate?
The Bumperdillo® is essentially a clear, durable film that adheres to your rear bumper. Think of it as a screen protector for your phone, but for your car. It acts as a sacrificial layer, taking on scratches and scuffs that would otherwise damage your bumper’s paint. This protective plate is custom-fit for Volkswagen Jetta and Jetta GLI models, ensuring a seamless and effective shield.
Benefits of a Bumperdillo® Protection Plate
Investing in a Bumperdillo® Protection Plate offers several advantages:
- Scratch and Scuff Prevention: The primary benefit is the protection it provides against scratches and abrasions from loading and unloading cargo, minor bumps, and general wear.
- Preserves Resale Value: By keeping your bumper in pristine condition, you help maintain your vehicle’s resale value. A damaged bumper can significantly detract from a car’s overall appeal.
- Easy Installation: The Bumperdillo® is designed for straightforward installation thanks to its self-adhesive backing. While professional installation is recommended, many car owners can successfully apply it themselves.
- Durable and Long-lasting: Constructed from high-quality materials, the Bumperdillo® is built to withstand the rigors of daily use, providing long-lasting protection for your bumper.
- Subtle Protection: With its silver finish, the Bumperdillo® blends seamlessly with your bumper, providing discreet protection without altering your car’s appearance.

Installing Your Bumperdillo® Protection Plate
While the Bumperdillo® is designed for relatively easy installation, proper application is crucial for optimal performance. Volkswagen recommends consulting your owner’s manual or a qualified dealer for detailed installation instructions. Key steps typically include thoroughly cleaning the bumper surface, carefully aligning the plate, and firmly applying it to ensure proper adhesion.
Maintaining Your Bumperdillo®
The Bumperdillo® requires minimal maintenance. Regular washing with soap and water is sufficient to keep it clean and free of debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the protective layer.
Is a Bumperdillo® Right for You?
If you frequently load and unload items in your trunk or want to proactively protect your Jetta or Jetta GLI’s bumper from damage, the Bumperdillo® Protection Plate is a worthwhile investment. It’s a simple yet effective solution for preserving your car’s appearance and value. Contact your local Volkswagen dealer for more information and to purchase a Bumperdillo® Protection Plate.
