Default has anyone installed door guards?
the sharp corner of the rear door on the q7 dinged another car in our garage and i want to avoid it happening again. All i have found on the web is $10 junk.

No. But i an constantly worried about my kids' eyes. That corner is at 4 year old face level. Can't think of a neat solution

Default maybe this way it'll only hit them in the nose or mouth.. teeth are cheaper to replace than eyes!

Default Same with me....nice gouge in my BMW thanks to that rear door corner!
I asked Audi if they made a little corner strip to protect the corner....would be a nice accessory.

Default Me too... No damage to Q7 but nasty ding in A3. No solution.
Moral of the story... Dont park too close to another Q7!
