bad bug deflector

I bought a bug deflector from Ford for my 2002 f-150. It sucks. It has these plastic screws and rubber stops so it just kinda stays on by pressing together. its a piece of junk. does anyone know of someone who makes a better one? if you do let me know.

EGR makes good stuff. I have a carbon fiber on my 04. Excellent fit, very sturdy and no vibration at high speeds.

i fixed my vibration problem its sturdy now, got some foam pads with 1 sticky side and stuck em on it, it was a tight fit getting it back on but now it works great, no vibration except on the very ends where its too thin. wish previous owners did it for me, ive got paint missing cause of it.

over all, like a $5 fix max.

I have the chrome 300 series, very good fit, looks cool. easy install, fits under grill, you have to remove grill, but very easy, the shield fits between the hood and grill.
