Your car's exterior takes a beating in everyday life. Door locks get scratched by keys and fingernails, and front bumper corners scrape against parking blocks and tight garage walls. Two very different accessories try to solve this: a tiny carbon-fiber-look keyhole sticker and a large glossy black bumper corner piece. The first is a cheap, universal fix; the second is a pricier, vehicle-specific guard. Which one you need depends on where the damage happens and how much you're willing to invest.
Quick verdict
If you want a quick, low-cost way to keep the keyhole area from getting scratched, the 20mm carbon fiber keyhole sticker is the obvious choice. If you drive a Honda CR-V and want real protection for the front bumper corners, the glossy black bumper corner protection is worth the higher price. The prices range from $7.98 for the sticker set to $63.21 for the bumper guard.

Where each product wins
The keyhole sticker wins on price, universality, and pack contents. It costs a fraction of the bumper guard and can fit any car's keyhole. It also comes with four pieces, so you have spares or can cover multiple doors.
The bumper corner protection wins on coverage and impact resistance. It's made from ABS, has a glossy black automotive finish, and is designed for a specific Honda CR-V fit, so it blends in better with the car's lines. It uses adhesive tape and requires no tools.
20mm Carbon Fiber Car Lock Keyhole Sticker Protection Cover
This little set gives you four 20mm stickers in a carbon fiber pattern to place over the door lock keyhole. The simple application is a selling point: clean the area, peel the adhesive backing, and press it on. One clear reason to pick this set is the low cost relative to larger exterior accessories; you get enough stickers to protect multiple keyholes. The limitation is its small size and focus: it only shields the keyhole from scratches and dirt, not the rest of the door or bumper. If you want broader impact protection for the front corner, this won't help. It's a maintenance-free cover that works on any car, but it doesn't offer the heavy-duty guarding of a bumper trim piece.
Car Accessories Exterior Front Bumper Corner Protection Front: Glossy Black
This glossy black corner guard is built for a specific Honda CR-V and attaches with automotive adhesive tape, so installation does not require drilling or tools. The ABS material and painted finish give it a factory-like look. A strong reason to choose this over a tiny sticker is the amount of coverage: each set includes two pieces that protect the front bumper corners from scrapes and impacts. The limitation is the fit: it's described as vehicle-specific, and for this listing that means Honda CR-V; it's also priced higher than small universal decals. If you drive a CR-V and park in tight spaces, this piece addresses a real damage point. But if your main concern is just the keyhole, this is overkill.
Final choice by use case
For universal keyhole protection on any car, pick the 20mm keyhole sticker. For a Honda CR-V owner who wants bumper corner coverage and doesn't mind the higher price, pick the glossy black bumper corner guard. If you want both, you could combine them: the sticker handles the lock area, the guard handles the bumper corner.
