I have the mopar factory guards in chrome which I know many of you hate chrome but I think it works well with the grill and the rally stripes-to each his own right? Anyway it has many little nicks on it which would otherwise probably would have it the hood and chipped the paint-so I like it!

I understand that this isn't your grandpa's 5 inch tall green plexi great wall.. that's not what I wanted.. I see that it covers the majority of the area that's going to be the prime strike zone and for the cost... It's totally worth it. To the person that made the Moustache comment.. Damn you. I'm trying to unsee it.....

That was me and I can't unsee it either! I like the idea of these but I'm not sure that I like the look.

Luckily mine is close enough in color to be close to invisible... that and when driving I can't see it..

Yep, I have the granite also. The black AVS aeroskin blends in enough in your pics. I like the chrome version of the aeroskin too but these trucks already have a bit of a chrome overload going on.

I'm another very happy AVS aeroskin bug deflector customer. I got it in the mail the other day and installed it yesterday. I really like the way it looks against the blue and chrome. It came to $50.05 shipped.

Like said above, these fit completely flush with the hood surface and have a thin strip of 3M tape around the full perimeter of the deflector, but with a bunch of ~1" gaps to let water, debris, etc out. It's not easy to get it stay lined up 100% end to end once you start stickin' it and as my luck would have it, I missed the mark just a hair on the pass side end. No big deal to me.

I've had mine for 4 years, the tape on the ends have started to fail/dryout. I added some more, but pretty sure I'll end up taking it off.

I had on a another vehicle some ground effects and the same thing happened. I talked to the Line-X guys that did my bed and between $130 and $150 to bed line iit.

I went with the form fit tough guard. I like it. Took my time installing since the pads with threaded holes go on first and you actually bolt the cover to each pad.
