    Patent number: 5227217
    Abstract: Disclosed is a removable edge guard for installation on an edge of a vehicle door or the like. The edge guard is a composite of self-supporting polymeric materials. A protector portion is formed from a first polymeric material and has a bumper section and a planar section. A base portion is formed from a second polymeric material more rigid than the first polymeric material. The base portion and the planar section of the protector portion together define a U-shaped channel to receive the edge of the vehicle door or the like. The base portion is extrudably joined to the planar section of the protector portion at the closed end of the U-shaped channel. A retention fin is extrudably joined to the base portion at the open end of the U-shaped channel. The retention fin is formed from the first polymeric material. The retention fin projects into the U-shaped channel toward the planar section of the protector portion.
