Legacy Outback - unpainted bumpers ?

[Upilogue]

I'm considering Legacy Outback. Is there any option to get unpainted
bumpers, so they'll hold up better (at least visibly) against nicks,
scratches, and people who can't/don't care about other people's cars
when they park?

If not, what do Legacy Outback owners do with their bumpers in terms
protective accessories or after market? Invicashield?

I like the bumpers on Volvo X70XC, Audi AllRoad, Ford Escape, etc
because they are more practical (carefree) in terms of taking on light
hits and scratches. After all, that's what bumpers are for and I
wished automakers would give more options in terms of
painted/integrated bumpers vs plain ones.

Thanks!

No, but you can get the monotone outbacks with the bottoms of the
bumpers and side molding unpainted. It has a blacked-out look on the
bottom of the molding and bumpers.
