Bug Deflector
« on: May 08, 2007, 07:33:56 PM »
I recently installed a new AVS deflector II for the trip to MCM to help protect the nose. I'm not sure if I want to keep it on or just use it for road trips. What do you guys think?

I think our trucks look better without them. 

With mine it blends in more than most other colors.

Also I can't get the upper chrome piece to stay without it so its gonna stay.

I like the look of the deflector as long as it blends and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb! B you are right the deflector blends pretty well with the black! :thumb: Mick I'm surprised that was your truck,it looks so different now! :yourock:

I need to get a bug guard with my AV being a daily driver and making the 60 mile round trip to work.

Just installed an AVS Bugflector II on my Av today and I'm considering replacing it already with another AVS product called the Hoodflector which is a low profile version of the Bugflector II.  There's just something about the Bugflector II that makes me think it sticks out too far on the hood of the vehicle.

See? thats what modders do.  They replace mods on a jiffy when they dont look as expected. God knows how many mods i have up in the shelf collecting dust wondering whats going to happen with them.
