Hitch Cover to protect other cars during rear-ending

I hope my title did a decent job of explaining my idea. I can't find this product anywhere.

I'm looking for something to insert into my receiver that will stick out only about 1", bend 90 degrees straight down, and then have a flat piece welded onto the end. the flat plate will be covered in rubber and be roughly 1 foot by 6 inches.

This way if I'm in a tight parking spot and barely bump someone my receiver won't tear apart the front of their car, instead, it will be a light push, with the force distributed over the area of the welded on flat bar, which is covered in rubber.

anyone seen something like this, or would be interested in one?

it's the same idea as a trailer for a semi trucks has the lower cross bar so that small vehicles (if they rear-end the trailer) don't fly under it.
