Okay, your looking for a bug shield or bug deflector. So how do they work anyway. Well bug shields work by deflecting debris from your hood and windshield. They can provide extra protection for your truck or SUV.
Bug shields deflect airflow up from the hood surface so most bugs, rocks, and debris do not hit your windshield. Instead of hitting your windshield the shield will take the initial blow and either stick to it or kick the debris away from your pickup.
Another great reason to own a bug deflector is along with deflecting bugs, bug shields also protect your hood from rock chips that can fly up at you when your driving. Flying rocks cause so many chips a year and are very costly and a nuisance to your windshield. You don’t want to keep calling safelite over and over from mini chips in your windshield. Just making an investment in a bug deflector can save you future costs in repairs. So choose from the type of pickup you own and the style you want and begin being protected from bugs and road debris today!
