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.
