Looks amazing on truck super easy to install

Fit perfectly and easy install 👌 holding up 2 yrs later!

Installed this today. Looks great on my Ram Big Horn and the quality seems good. As many of the reviews stated though I did have some issues with the “hardware” provided for the install. Install was easy enough but I had to run to the auto parts store and replace two of the grommets. All and all I am happy with the way this looks on my truck and aside having to replace the parts provided the install was easy enough.

The part and screws that you receive will work fine if you do the following steps:1.) Two person job2.) When you put the center clip into the hole the outer clip and visor must be firmly pressed (I used a screwdriver to press hard down on it) on the hood.3.) You will need to lower the hood screws that control the height of the hood. When you go to close it with the factory setting it will most likely not close (your mileage may vary). The screws have detents that allow you to have the same height on both sides. I screwed down three clicks.4.) For Ram 1500, the old clips will not come easily but be careful to only remove 6 clips (3 on each sides).5.) Overall very nice but please fix your instructions page (the QR code doesn't work) and they should leave a spare clip just in case something breaks.

I sent the following message to Auto Ventshade. I have not heard a peep. As I received no response, I purchased a pushpin kit so I was able to install the deflector. It was no easy task. The majority of the slots on the deflector did not line up with the hood.I am writing to complain about the AVS Bugflector Hood Shield that I recently purchased. I tried to install the shield according to the instructions, but the push pins that were included were too long to fit in the hood. I tried to trim the push pins, but they were still too long. I even tried to use different push pins that I had on hand, but none of them were the right size.In addition to the push pins being too long, the package was also short 14 push pins. I needed 20 push pins to install the shield, but the package only included 6.I am very disappointed with this product. I have been a loyal Auto Ventshade customer for many years, and I have never had a problem with their products before. However, this product is clearly defective.I would like you to send me a new package of push pins that are the correct size. I would also like you to send me a refund for the 14 push pins that were missing from the original package.I hope that you will take this matter seriously. I am a very satisfied customer with your products, and I would like to continue to be a customer. However, I cannot do that if I am not able to install the Bugflector Hood Shield properly.Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

The smoke Bugflector 2 looks great on my 2022 Ram 1500 5th gen. Installation is horrendous. The clips packaged with the deflector are too big and don’t work. Here is what I did: I bought the GOOACC 635Pcs Car Push Retainer Clips for under $20. I used the clip shown in the photo with this review to attach the deflector to the body in the existing holes (6 of them). In other words, I did not sandwich the rubber seal and the deflector under the clip, as clip I used is too small for that. Then, I used 3M double sided advanced auto tape to attach the rubber seal to the deflector at the clip points. It’s been on about 10 minutes, so I can’t vouch for longevity, but all seems okay. It’s a 2 person install.

I received the bug shield in the factory box, which was well-protected. Installation was a breeze, make sure you mark which factory tabs come off so you don't pull out the wrong ones. Highly recommend to anyone with a truck! Looks great too.

Product doesn't align on hood perfectly when centered on hood. The fasteners are to long for the 2022 Ram 1500 hood. The Bug Shield did NOT come with instructions as it states all over their Web Site. I was disappointed in this product since I have always used AVS for my accessories and never had a issue before.
