Noticed today that the paint under the rear passenger seat has some serious scuffs from the rubber "feet" under the passenger seat. I polished those out, but it is going to happen again.
Thinking about putting some PPF on the fender under the seat - has anyone else noticed this (any other solution)?

design flaw, cant fix it, i would put a black wrap for now. the more weight on seat, passenger, pothole jerks etc, the more deeper/ the scuffs get/rubber breaks in more into color/top coat/plastic.
 
Be sure to check that the stealership gives the rubbers back. However they lose them.
It'll really leave a mark.

Mine got chewed up pretty badly by sand getting trapped under there. I polished it the best I could and cut some circles in some thick clear gorilla tape to prevent further damage. It worked but bugged me to the point where I got the rider infill to get rid of the passenger seat and had the whole bike repainted.
 
I've noticed that issue. I'd have to say that that's really the only negative I've ever found. I love my Rocket 3R. I think since I'll always have the seat covering the bumper points. I'm just not going to worry about it.
