3M clear bra stuff? What it is? Where is it found?

I just found a new, cheap material that I'll be trying out as a grill block - clearly vinyl stair protectors/covers. They have a blue tint but are basically clear, about 1/8" thick, relatively flexible, and cost only $2 at OSH (probably about the same at Home Depot), and are easily cut with normal scissors or a razor. They have a lip that goes over then end of the stairs (about 2cm). I bought three of them and am replacing my coroplast upper grill block tonight, the lower grills (currently uncovered) tomorrow. I'll attach them to the grill with small self-drilling screws with washers and probably a drop of light lock-tight.

Anyone used garden separator material to make an air dam under the front bumper? I've seen it on one other car, but not sure how to attach it or other details.

thanks again for all the thoughtful replies, you've been very helpful!
