Protective Guard for Front Bumper from scraping?

Can someone suggest a lip guard or some sort that will protect my front bumper from getting scrapped. i recently scrapped my front bumper and about to just cover it up with some touch up paint and i dont want it to scrap again on my driveway. Thanks in advanced!

You could use vinyl. Only thing I can really think of other than maybe cutting something from sheet metal. Just drive up your driveway at an angle.

If you scrape your front lip at a particular place and then add something to your front end it's for sure you'll still scrape when you come back to the same place. The only way to correct the problem is to change the route you drive or change your driving habits.
