991 Hood Protectors

I think these are very nice. Better than the whole lid protectors on the 997s, IMO. I plan to order one soon.

i rarely put anything in the front so something like this, as a protective measure, has little value for me. is there any other purpose it serves?

Ah, their old website didn't say anything yet about the 991 model.

I don't get it. What is it protecting the lid from?

it would theoretically protect the lid if it was to be closed with something large.

I was thinking more along the lines of protecting it from something being thrown up into the lid when going over a bump.

So I am thinking again about getting this liner. Is there someone on this site that has actually damaged their trunk lid closing it? Is this a solution in search of a problem, or are there many 991 owners who have wished that they had installed this on their car the day before slamming the hood on an upside down bar stool?
