Looking for an Oldsmobile Mechanic Fender protector

Has anyone seen a mechanic fender protector pad that has a nice Oldsmobile logo on it? Looking for a Christmas gift and can't seem to find one doing some google searches. Thought someone might have seen one out there in a catalog.

Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction.

I like those full front end cover deals they have too, I end up using four fender protectors to cover everything, lifelong case of the butterfingers.
I took them with me when I took the car in for a wheel alignment, the guy thought I was nuts when I covered up everything before he worked on it, don't bother me.

You could put it over Larry's wheel barrow when you add air to his tires.

You don't work on your engine, what would you do with them Sandycha-chapatra??
How about an apron with your car on it for cooking and vacuuming the house??

That is a really cool one! Gotta show this to my wife as a Christmas gift idea! As for using these at the alignment shop, ABSOLUTELY!!! We use these on our own cars and we're already being super careful, some guy at a shop will not have near the same concern for the car's paint.

I'll give you an apron, alright!! I clean my engine ya know? Too late..... I already ordered a few, lol! Figure I can lay them over the front end when I'm leaning over it, instead of clipping on sheets and blankets . I have my Summit fender cover from the show last summer too. You gotta quit posting this stuff..... it costs me too much, lol!

The link "Bluevista" put up for the fender cover, shows the cover, but it is on a Ford Mustang. I thought it was funny.
Nice cover, I'll have to get one.

Problem is I am moving on Dec 18 and I do not yet have a fowarding address. I called on Monday and spoke to a rep. They had no Olds in stock. He sold 7 in the last week. I am not the only one here wanting one . He then called down to production to check on status. They were going to print more on Monday the 13th. I explained that I was, time wise, in a bind. He told me to order it online, s/h is cheaper online than on the phone, and he will make sure it ships in time or he will cancel the order for me.

The rep called today so tell me that he convinced them to print last night and mine will ship today by 3-day UPS instead of the UPS STD Ground I paid for for no extra charge.

That is class.

Merry Xmas for Millie.

I forgot to mention, He said that someone named Cha Cha Teepo ordered 6 for a Christmas present for a Sandy. He thought it was strange but the credit card cleared, and a sale is a sale.

I have two of those, a red one and a black one. I bought them at least 6 years ago. They hold up very well, cling to the fender like glue, leave no trace that they were there, are very cushioning. A very good product in my estimation.

They are cool.
When Laura takes me to go to see Santa at the mall I'll ask him for one.

I have my Summit fender cover from the Solon charity cruise too.
You told me I could have yours Sandy?
Remember how hot it was then and this cold weather doesn't feel that bad.

Hey I need one of these too!
Me like a dummy leaned over the fender of the wagon and put 2 small scratches in it with my jacket zipper the other day!
Maybe they'll buff out if Im lucky.

I bought one of these at a swap meet this past summer and it makes a great trunk display when not protecting the fender.
