Wind/Bug Deflector

Source	Best Dressed Truck, Inc.
Location	Roswell, GA
Phone	770-643-8788

Installation Time	20 minutes
Notes: About three weeks after I bought my truck I noticed a growing crack in the windshield. About that time I decided to buy a bug deflector to protect from future "incidents." Installation of the shield was simple. Many people have asked me if I had to drill holes in the hood...answer: nope! The pre-drilled holes in the shield matched up perfectly with holes in the hood. To secure it, Deflecta-Shield provides plastic screws, and small rubber "bumpers" to prevent the shield from flapping around in the wind. No double-sided tape, either. It does add a bit wind noise, though, but looks great!

Notes: The cover fits like a glove and looks fantastic. Installation was a breeze, the truck is a lot more stable at highway speeds and I think I'm even getting better mileage! In addition, it has kept a great deal of cargo dry. Highly recommended addition
