{QanwI'} might be a better word for a bumper, fender, etc.  On the BOP 
poster {tal QanwI'} "cannon guard" refers to some protective armor plating 
around the cannon.  Okrand has also used {Qan} "protect" WRT a d'k tahg:

   ghop luQan tajHommey
   [the blades] providing both a hand guard... SP2

OTOH every known example of {'av} "guard" and {'avwI'} refer to people.
