Auto Ventshade [AVS] Hoodflector Bug Shield / Hood Protector | Fits 2007 - 2017 Ford Expedition/Expedition XL, 1 pc. | Dark Smoke - 21321

Every vehicle I've owned has had these installed on them. Completes the great look with the AVS vent visors also. Perfect fit and easy to install on my 2012 Ford Expedition Limited. The plastic screws installed perfectly in holes under the lip of my hood. Also, the predrilled holes in the deflector lined up perfectly. It does come with rubber stops that the instructions say to install on the hood but you can stick them to the back of the bug deflector if you don't want to stick them on your paint and it works the same. These help protect your paint from getting rubbed from the downforce of wind put on the bug deflector as you drive as it will flex. My suggestion is, feel where it flexes the most and place the rubber stops there not necessarily where the picture shows to place them. Just remember to close your hood securely after install. I've had them interfere with how hard to close a hood to get them to latch properly, but this one does NOT affect the hood closing at all. And it looks awesome!

I have had it for about 6 months now. It went on pretty easily but was a little bit of a pain to get aligned. With two people it is very easy. By myself it was hard to get one aligned and the bolt holes to align due to the length of the my hood (Ford Expedition). The small logo fell off but I honestly thought it was ugly anyway. Just clean off the glue with a little goo gone and it's a better looking product. After going through a wash just wipe with a rag and the water spots come right off. It also helps to keep the bugs and stones off the windshield as well.

This fits my 16 Expedition perfectly and covers the spot of oxidation from my aluminum heed. It sticks flush to the hood and does not cause any air lift to my windshield. highly recommend over the more expensive Husky and weathertech versions.

Like many other reviews that i have read the logo fell off getting the deflector out of the plastic packing. Installation was easy. The two metal end clips and screws worked very well but the plastic inserts and screws furnished to attach the center of the deflector to the hood are trash. The head of the plastic screws pull through the mounting holes when trying to tighten them securely. Went to Home Depot and purchased some dry wall mounting hardware and it worked very well to secure the center section. The deflector looks great. It will be interesting to see how well it holds up.

Works so well for keeping bugs off of front of car... but windshield still gets bombarded... lol

I ordered this product, and was very happy with the appearance, until I noticed bubbles in the chrome overlay on the right side. Of course, I only noticed AFTER we already put it on! I sent an email describing the defect, and my disappointment that it was not noticed, and should not have been sold. I also offered to email photos as well. I then received an email reply within two hours offering their apologies, and stating a replacement would be shipped the next day, and I would receive notice as soon as it did. I did in fact receive it promptly, and it looks great! However, I would warn prospective buyers that the hardware is plastic, and totally unsuitable. We had to use completely different screws to make it fasten securely. That would be my only complaint at this point, but it’s not a deal breaker. Hopefully they will, at some point, address this issue. I will still rate this as 5 stars because I received EXCELLENT customer service, and in the end, a product I am so far, very pleased with. We also bought the window vents and they look great as well.

I bought this for a 2011 expedition, the box lists that vehicle. There were no instructions at all in the box, just screws and 2 strange clips that I have no idea what they’re for. The holes On the bug shield do not line up With the holes on the hood . They are at least a half inch off, I don’t see how this can be installed without drilling, don’t waste your money!

Just what I needed and came in good condition and time and good quality, works well
