Fits perfect, looks very nice (and sporty)

Fits perfectly on our 2015 Rav4 LE. Decided to use both the 2-sided tape that was pre-installed and the plastic screw mounting hardware. The deflector is solid, very nice fit with no movement or flex at normal highway speeds, 70-80 mph. Install would have been about 10 minutes if I hadn't dropped one of the plastic screws in the engine compartment . but I did find it :)It wraps around the edges of the hood by design to protect the tops of the fenders from rocks, etc. so doesn't need to be…

Pros
  • Easy to install and they look great. Adds a nice touch while keeping the rain out.
Cons
  • May not be as effective at preventing damage as other types of hood protectors.

Fits the 2017 RAV4 perfectly

I'm not a mechanic and don't really like messing with my car. But this was so easy! Instructions are easy to follow. You don't need to know anything about cars, except how to lift the hood! I've driven over 1000 miles since installation and there have been no issues with the shield. If anything, it has improved my driving experience.It seems that the shield diverts rain and snow slightly upwards, away from the windshield so I'm not getting so much hitting it. This is especially true when in the

Pros
  • Works great, just wish it came with an extra screw, as i lost one when i was installing them.
Cons
  • Smoke color may not match with other exterior accessories on the RAV4.

Great bug deflector

Great quality product as described at a reasonable price. Fit was spot on and very easy install with included hardware (fasteners appeared too small but worked securely). Took one star off for shipping. Not sure whose at fault but box was practically cut in half and repaired with packing tape. Couldn't believe that there was no damage.

Pros
  • ‎USA
Cons
  • May not enhance the appearance of the RAV4 as much as other accessories.

Still Perfect After One Year+

Perfect. It installed easily (very good instructions were included). It was very well packaged for shipping. I own it for over 1 year and drove across country, and up & down both coasts, and it still looks new.

Pros
  • ‎No
Cons
  • May cause dings or scratches on the edge of the hood.

Fits 2014 Rav4: my feedback

Fits my 2014 Rav4 Le perfectly. I took the the AVS sticker off, don't know if I was supposed to do that but it was already coming off anyway. I think it looks better.

Pros
  • Use a razor blade to get the 3m sticky off! Fits a 2018 toyota rav4
Cons
  • May not hold up well in heavy rain or hail.

As Advertised: my feedback

Easy to install. Like some reviews mentioned, the plastic fasteners do seem cheap/flimsy, but it is attached securely now for several months with no issues. Looks great too.

Pros
  • Fits exelent on my aventure rav4 2018Exelet recommends I try to protect my hood from rocks
Cons
  • Smoke color may be prone to fading or discoloration in sunny climates.

Pros
  • Fit perfectly looks great durable plastic. Def would recommend.
Cons
  • May require additional maintenance to keep the shield clean and free of debris.

Good product, poor quality control!

Overall a decent product in dire need of better quality control. Here are the pros and cons:PROS:• Adds a sportier appearance to any RAV4. Goes great with SE and Adventure grade models• Construction appears sturdy and of decent quality, doesn’t look cheap on the surfaceCONS:• Poor quality control (misaligned adhesive tabs/drill holes, misshaped connection points weren’t curved enough to closely attach to holes in hood with provided hardware)• Fasteners are purely plastic, cheap feeling and…

Pros
  • This shield looks great on my ride real nice look good price
Cons
  • May make it harder to properly inspect the hood for damage.

looks nice: my feedback

I installed this on my 2013 rav 4 in about ten minutes. It looks good. It's medium profile so it sticks off my car a little higher than I thought,but I'll be able to put my fingers between it and my hood to clean.

Pros
  • Good product for money, but only black color ready for order.
Cons
  • Smoke color may not be uniform throughout the entire shield.

Cons
  • May create an unbalanced appearance on the vehicle.

Looks great. Easy install

This is the same deflector as Weathertech. Save $30 and get the AVS. It looks good and is easy to install. The plastic is rigid enough to not need the stick-on-bumpers. The hood closes just as easy as ever.

Pros
  • Easy to install.
Cons
  • May not hold up well in extreme weather conditions.

Install on your new car, you will be happy you did.

Perfect fit on the 2016 Toyota Rav4 Hybrid. Simple 5 minute installation, all that is required is a philips head screwdriver to push the plastic anchor heads in. A second set of hands to help line things up at first is helpful but not a must have. Looks great. I did apply the bumpers on the Carflector rather than on the car as another reviewer suggested. If it works as well as the ones we have on our other cars we will avoid chipped paint on the hood and bugs will be directed higher on the…

Pros
  • Love it
Cons
  • Additional hardware may be needed to properly install.

Looks and fits great, cheap fasteners.

Fit good, looks good. I gave it 3 stars because the plastic fasteners are cheap. 2 Broke during installation. Had to spend $4 more at local auto store for a set of fasteners which were much better quality.

Pros
  • Nice looks and minutes to install
Cons
  • Could potentially crack or shatter in extreme temperatures.
