Anything that you place on the fender will eventually trap dust which will then abrade the surface. You need to stick on a protective surface so the only movement will be between the seat and what ever protective surface that you use. I used several layers of clear packing tape. As mentioned above the 3M clear adhesive plastic sheet or Trimbrite Bodyguard Paint Protection Film are also some good materials to use that stick on to the paint.
If you're serious, a polyester film is the only decent solution.
