Reminds me of the bumper-protectors back in the '80's...
My dad bought a Chevy Caprice ... the big 4-door kind. Kind of a brown-metallic with a tan colored vinyl padded roof (remember those?) Anyway, he had installed these hideous-looking vertical mini-bumpers on either side of the license plate I suppose to protect the front bumper or to be able to push stranded cars or something. As I recall, they never were used nor were they ever necessary.

I had them on mine when I had just the widebooty. Parts for your car liked the picture so much they use this pic as their header on their C6 website page.
I think it looked ok, I decided to leave them off when I did the rest of the conversion.
