I am getting a lot of rock chips on my hood and the front lip of the hood... Would it be ugly to get a hood (bug) deflector, in smoke of course to match my Jeep?

That 3M clear bra is outta the question. I can't put it on and no one does it around here :(

The bug shield looks horrific IMHO. Do one of two things. Find a way to get the 3M clear bra installed. Or simply try and stay away from trucks and semis when you're driving.

I have one and love it. I had the clear tape on my Infiniti, but winters are so bad here, it still took abuse.

At any rate pics are here (post #2):

I received about 90/10 thumbs down responses on the bug deflector. Good thing I have a tough skin!

Thanks MNBob. It looks nice in my opinion.

I think with me having a black Jeep it will blend in a litte more.

really go for the clear bra if you can any way possible. Buy a kit on ebay and have someone put it in for you.


I have it and you cant really tell its even there. It has saved my front end several times

I'm going thumbs down on the deflector. I have the 3M and am happy with it. I would rather paint the front bumper every year than have the bug guard, but that's just me.
