Question:
Hello, I recently purchased a 2018 RAVh Hybrid SE. I am looking to protect my bumpers while parking on the mean streets of Chicago. I was looking at rear hitches w/bike rack or front/rear tow hooks/rings as an option instead of bully bars and other bumper saving methods. Do you have any advice and product recommendations?

Expert Reply:
Best option for the front that we offer is a grille guard like part # AA2065 which is a fit for your 2018 Toyota RAV4 as it's designed to protect the front of the vehicle. Then for the rear a trailer hitch like the etrailer part # e98864 would work to some degree but it's not really designed for protection.
You could then use a ball mount like # C45155 to give a bit more protection as well.
