  • Patent number: 8201860
    Abstract: The vehicle door protection device is a removable device for prevention of dents and other damage to a vehicle door, such as damage typically caused by the opening of an adjacent vehicle door. The vehicle door protection device includes an elongated base having opposed inner and outer surfaces, and an elongated fin joined to the outer surface of the base and projecting orthogonal thereto. The elongated base and elongated fin are preferably formed from high impact plastic or the like. The elongated fin preferably has a main body portion with an outer edge of increased thickness, enhancing the rigidity thereof. The inner surface of the base is releasably secured to an exterior face of the vehicle door by a magnetic layer secured to the inner surface. Alternatively, for vehicles having bodies formed from fiberglass or the like, the inner surface may have at least one suction cup secured thereto.
