Paint supply stores have a brush on plastic that you might be able to use. When done your risky ride (dirt road trips too) you just peel it off

The course was great, and best of all no drops!  Lots of very tight turns, u-turns, and some awful thing they called the iron cross which was a cross-shaped series of cones where you did a u-turn in each arm of the cross, reversing direction each time.  But I did install very attractive rubber floor tiles on the panniers as a precaution.

It's so genius.  I'm sure the boys at wunderlich will steal my idea.

Would these normally be fitted by a BMW Technician or a Carpet Fitter?
