Are you referring to the vertical plastic that sits behind the VUK?

You can put up a protector with velcro:

It still sounds like the OP is referring to the vertical plastic rather than the Arwen plastic. The vertical plastics just needs a piece of lexan for protection that you can buy at your local hardware store and cut with a jigsaw as I posted above.
Pinbits sells a very good sandwich protector for the Arwen plastic.

Quoted from AUKraut:

If the OP is talking about the vertical clear plastic on the back of the Shire VUK, then yes, that’s different. As was mentioned by DCFAN, a piece of plexiglass Lexan cut with a scroll saw attached to the inside of the VUK with some two sides 3m tape will protect that. Did that on mine and can take some pics this evening

I found that the velcro works better because the 2-sided tape has foam in between the adhesive sides and the foam tears between the adhesive outer layers over time.
