We also have a split mat attached to the LD's bumper. With that combination, we've never had a chip on the Honda while towing. http://www.roadmasterinc.com/guardian.htmlThis looks similar to the Guardian, but is clear. http://www.towcardeflector.com/index.htmlSharon N.

I installed it myself simply by putting the four eye screws in the plastic thing below the bumper on our '95 Honda Accord and the other eye screws went in the base of the LD's bumper. I will try and take some photos as I am using it on the trip we are on now in AZ.Chris
