I think the product is called door guards. You can get them cheap at the local auto store like Autozone, Pep Boys or something similar in your area.

It's called ugly as* door guards!

IMO, it looks crappy. I say, just be careful when you open the doors. Why can't you just open the door slowly, and not touch the other person's car or wall?

Seems like people use those to protect their own car doors, but don't give a rat's *** about other people's cars

Not trying to diss you or anything, just expressing a thought I had.

Ihope you get ones that look somewhat decent. I got some for my Escort, hard flexible plastic, that fit around the edge of the door. Since it was flexible, it followed the shape of the door and I just snipped off the excess. It wasn't foamy, or resembled a weatherstrip. On a black car, you could almost not notice it was there. Covered the door edge about 2-3mm. Bets looking door guard I ever saw.
