Looks great. at first

I actually bought this a second time after my first one came off after being installed for about a year and a half. I thought maybe I installed it poorly and that caused it to fail. Well, after buying a second one about 8 months and installing it exactly centered and nearly perfect, it came off yesterday while driving on the highway. I couldn't immediately pull over at the time so I had to let half of it flap in the 65+ mph wind until I could get to a safe place to pull over. In this process…

Pros
  • Easy to install and fit perfectly and looks great
Cons
  • May not provide adequate protection against debris or weather

I just like the fact that you have to update or refresh your app to sign in online. Or cell phone. When I got to the store which was in peoples plaza new Ark Delaware there were 10 people ahead of me. But the app says zero time waiting. I was not the only one with this issue. The manager said try refreshing your app after doing so it’s all up to date. Should not have to do this. Also the manager of the store while cutting my hair, often has to walk away from me to manage the register and people

Pros
  • Works as it should.
Cons
  • May not adhere to the hood properly and come loose while driving

Updated below.Installation was as easy as you would think. I have my bugflector centered perfectly and the driver side seems a bit deformed. It sits a but farther away from the hood as the passenger side does. Other than that I love the look it adds to my truck.Update 7/25/16:I originally gave this product 4 stars. I'm downgrading it to barely 2.I'd give it a 1.5 if it were an option. So after 4 drive through car washes the product has failed at the clips. I didn't notice any damage through the

Pros
  • protection and discreet, does not hold snow.
Cons
  • Save your money. Very thin. Broke while installing. Total waste of money.

Bug deflector for Chevy Silverado.

Pain in the patootie to install correctly, took 2 men and a small child. Needs better instructions to fine the center of the deflector.

Pros
  • Seamless Fit – Enjoy a lasting finish with form-fitting protection that blends seamlessly with your vehicle.
Cons
  • May not bond properly to the surface of the vehicle's hood, leading to gaps or flapping while driving

Poor adhesive on my review.

The product looks good but the one I just got the adhesive didn't stick well, I believe my part was defective because the same exact part I had in the past was 100% good quality and lasted 7 years.

Pros
  • great price and awesome fit and ez install
Cons
  • Adds unnecessary weight to the vehicle, reducing fuel efficiency

Great Value and Product

This Bugflector fits very well and protects my hood from bugs and road debris. If you have a nice truck, spend the money and get one. You will be glad you did.

Pros
  • ‎Car
Cons
  • Could damage the vehicle's clear coat if not installed or removed correctly

Excellent product. but the tape will wear off in about a year.

Very good quality product, easy to install but the double sided tape will wear off from the corners. You will need to replace the adhesive almost about every year and the old one is really hard to remove.

Pros
  • Provides top-notch protection
Cons
  • Can be difficult to remove once installed, leading to lasting damage to the vehicle's surface

Great product. Put it on Grandsons 2014 Chevy z71

If you have used 3M tape before ,you know when it touches something it sticks. Have the deflector in place when you pull the tape.Great product .Put it on Grandsons 2014 Chevy z71.

Pros
  • Super easy to install. Looks great and adds to the over appearance to my truck...
Cons
  • Can interfere with sensors or cameras on the vehicle

Great Shield best in my review

Perfect fit on my new 2015 Silverado LTZ crew cab. Need to follow the instructions very carefully and would highly recommend to get a "grease pencil" (called for in the instructions!) or something similar prior to installing. You have to "mark" key spots on your hood for proper alignment and metal clip location. This is all being done to be sure you get it properly "centered". Metal clips are used to hold down the corners of the shield. There are rubber "bumpers"

Pros
  • Quality product and easy installation.
Cons
  • Could be damaged by car wash brushes or other abrasive cleaning materials

Great look, easy install!

Product arrived in a very timely manner. Install was very self explanatory. Did a trial run before actually installing. Was a little unsure about the fact that it sticks to the hood and not bolts/screws. However, after installed, im glad that it sticks on. At least it won't cause the hood to rust this way. If it ever has to be removed, with a little elbow grease, the tape will come off with no damage.the only complaint I have is the box. It came in a box large enough for 2 dozen of them to be…

Pros
  • Body
Cons
  • The flush mount design could make it difficult to use certain hood accessories or attachments

The product is 1/2 inch longer than it should be

The product is the correct shape and fit the contour of the hood but was 1/2 inch too long on the passenger side of the hood?

Pros
  • Looks perfect on the truck, adds a little something extra!
Cons
  • May not effectively protect against bird droppings or tree sap

Wanted the larger Aero Vent shades, for my Astrovan

Easy install, works great at freeway speeds, be cautious adhesive is pressure sensitive make sure you are straight and even before pulling the tape and make sure surface is clean with alcohol

Pros
  • Works. Dont like the clips but it's still on there so.
Cons
  • Can be difficult to install without causing damage to the vehicle's paint or surface

The tape will fail. Wait to write a review.

Product looks great on truck. Mine has been on for a year and the tape is beginning to fail. Like most people on here, the tape will fail on the highway when you can’t pull over easily and creates a dangerous situation to other drivers when the thing blows off. In all honesty, surprised this company has not gone belly up with potential law suits from this product. Waited to write a review to give it time in the hot Carolina sun. My original concerns were confirmed. No matter how you prep the…

Pros
  • I like the way it fit the truck! Went on quick and easy. Nothing can get caught under it!
Cons
  • May not have sufficient clearance for engine components or aftermarket modifications

Read directions & go slowly.

The package was well packed. Instructions was easy. It really looks good and kept bugs from splatter on front of the hood.

Pros
  • Looks fantastic and installs easy. Watch a YouTube video before you do it and it will go on easy
Cons
  • Can make the vehicle appear bulkier and less streamlined

Looks great and very practical!

Received this and waited to install before writing this review. first, this was shipped in a damaged box. I knew this and even though it was listed as used. it had never been installed and all the hood guard and support brackets as well as the two hood guard adhesive bumpers were packed, I didn't use a grease pencil, and didn't have painters tape, but I did have electrical tape. which was used to both mark the center if deflector and the location of where the hood mounts were to be located…

Pros
  • ‎1
Cons
  • Could interfere with the operation of the hood latch or hinges

fits well,on truck good for me

Came with all attachments and was made correctly. It fit well and was easy to install. I have run it through a car wash it stayed just fine

Pros
  • Came early and easy to install.
Cons
  • Blocks access to wiper blades, making it difficult to clean the windshield

Decent product for DIY

Everything came with this for install which is great. Matched up with body lines so looks really good. Down side is mold was to long on left side(drivers side) which causes it to hang over almost a 1/4 inch. I can see it but no one else really picks it out. So 4 out of five stars.

Pros
  • Best looking one out there
Cons
  • Can negatively impact the vehicle's resale value

I’m happy with it. in my review

It tooks me about 20mins to install. Most of the time were measurements. What I didn’t like is you have to put a two metal clips over your the front edge of your hood. They give you a thick piece of rubber tape. So the metal doesn’t scratch the paint. But this is all how good you can measure. I was off by like hair. So I had to take the tape off and try again. But the tape seemed to lose some glue. The old saying measure twice cut once comes to mind. I also did it by myself, it’s definitely…

Pros
  • Love the look of this on my truck!!!
Cons
  • Could interfere with emergency personnel trying to identify the vehicle
