Happy to help as I learned and got some links from this group. Though you can order from many Mazda dealer parts site, I ordered from Amazon because this seller is also a Mazda dealer, arrived on time and the packaging was too good for a small part. The product was genuine.
Maybe look into applying something like SLIPLO once you have it cleaned up.
Amazon, people all over NY are using it. But you can only use top 2 holes to attach it, bottom does not line up correctly.
But works for me.
BumpShox XL - Front Car Bumper... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0041LN1L4?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I have the Dawn Enterprises one on both my CX-5 and my wife’s Atlas. Looks to be the same as the Sportwing. Only issue is when you install don’t push it too close to the lift gate as it will squeak every time you go over a bump. It can be really annoying and took you a while to figure out what was making the noise.
The cheap rubber ones that unroll are junk. I had one previously and it came ripped. Looked like shit after a month.
I see these things all the time in big cities,except LA for some reason

I have this attached to my rv bumper.
It’s a rubber guard for your back bumper. It mounts into your trunk and you flip it out and over your back bumper when you’re heading into the city. There are a lot of different types and some that mount to the front as well that look like a thick license plate frame.

I purchased one from Amazon that was OEM and it was easy to install and does not interfere with the lift gate. I really like the way it came out

it seems to be the same one as this and it has over 1000 reviews on Amazon with 4.6 stars.

A lot of city people who don’t know how to park very well use what I call the “tap method” by which they gauge the park by tapping the back bumpers, or vice versa, before going forwards again. I used to watch this occur daily when I lived on a street with very little parking. I recommend everyone buy bumper pads similar to this one:

Something like this and a front plate protector will help a little with the scratches when you park on the street. Unfortunately not much can be done when it comes to careless drivers and pedestrians.
You might be able to pull the dent out with a dent puller or maybe try to reach underneath and pop it back out. Just a thought, not sure if it would work.
EZ Lip Pro I used this on my old 04 Legacy GT for many winters, it looked good, it will obviously flex, and it can be painted (I painted mine body color, silver). Just make sure you really take your time putting it on... because once it sticks, that's where it is, period. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00W4IDIGE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_3R9PQKSW3R6RN6XQ9KXH?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
They have scrape guards that go under your bumper and act as a sacrificial layer like this (I just picked a random one, this isn't a recommendation, do your own due diligence): https://www.amazon.com/SLIPLO-Universal-Bumper-Scrape-Protector/dp/B086KZGZBD
Kind of jank, but it is what it is.
Tyger has one on Amazon that isn’t bad. But I hate they’re logo. But the plate would mount right in front of it completely hiding it. Imagine that!

Bumper is stock, or do you mean bull bar? Its tyger. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N7FTI29/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I bought a Barker as well. Have you considered mounting onto your bumper? It really isn't that much extra weight. I do have a square frame with a complete weld though. So the tank and the spare tire and haven't had any problems so far.

I did have to wait a while for it to ship if I recall but I might have gotten in just in time that it wasn't too long. Other places might have it in stock. I've also seen some people just strap it onto the front frame behind the LP tanks.
If you’ve ever lived in a city, there’s a three bump rule as long as there is no damage. Everyone knows that. That’s why they make these.
It's called ez lip, I think I got mine on Ebay but they sell it on Amazon too. I've had it on for nearly as long as I've owned the car and its held up surprisingly well
i go this universal one: https://www.amazon.com/EJs-SUPER-CAR-Protector-Installation/dp/B01N2QV1XE/ref=sr_1_35_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1542651293&sr=8-35-spons&keywords=rear+scuff+guard&psc=1
but there are also vehicle specific ones that cost like 3-5x as much.

Would work on the front for sure if you have to have a front plate. Depending on the car would help on the back as well.
Thx for the help -- I think im gonna throw this in there too. Maybe ill just hammer some nails into it from behind, as to poke holes or at least scratch anyone foolish enough to back up within a 1/4 in of my bumper. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0041LN1L4/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=A2Z88TMTEYO2CS&psc=1
I have this on my front bumper. I refuse to look like a dork with a bumper bully on the back though so I just deal with the scratches there.
I don't have a bike rack for my car, but I think if you paired the trunk-mounted rack with a bumper guard, it might be what you're looking for.
All over up there people have shit like this, bumper mat, and they just back up till they hit you then go forward and repeat...
For your front bumper you could give this a go, however it may not work depending on what height their bumper is when it hits your front. http://www.amazon.com/BumpShox-XL-Protection-Ultimate-License/dp/B0041LN1L4/ref=pd_sim_auto_1
