I believe what he means is "If you're more careful and don't slide things across the bumper, you won't have to spend £57".. :)

How is a scuffed stick on stainless trim going to look any better than a slightly marked bumper?
Why not get some thin rubber sheet, trim it to the shape of the bumper return edge, and stick it on? If your car is a dark colur, it won't even be noticable.
