2017 rear bumper/hatch protector? Talking the flat part just outside the hatch. Where on May other cars would have a black plastic trim piece.

Talking the section that's horizontal just behind the hatch. Where loading something would receive the most wear/tear. A lot of other vehicles have a black plastic trim piece covering this area. 

 

I first tried a "universal solution". Lasted about a year. Car washes etc the water just got underneath and it peeled off. Then I used weatherstripping adhesive to attach it better. Got a couple more months. 

 

 

 

Finally ripped all that off and was using a decal remover/whizz wheel to remove the adhesive. What I thought was the heat spreading the weatherstripping adhesive (was at first) was actually stripping the paint off. White car 

 

Ended up buying something else that the whole entire bottom is a more foamy/vinyl decal. It's holding up fairly well except the ends. Was gonna try to heat them up to reattach. 

 

Any insight?
