Chris,

This is where liberal applications of duct tape come in handy to wrap around
the corners over the foam insulation to 1) add extra protection in reduction
of sharp corners and 2) hold the insulation in place. Something of a hassle
to remove in spring. You can also use scraps of old carpeting thrown over the
corners and duct taped in place. W/ the Armorlon tarps you don't need to
worry about grommets as they have really neat fiberglass hardware that you
can attach anywhere on the tarp.
