I installed the lund . I was real hesitant with the stick on option. My previous trucks were all bolt on.
Not really sure if it's deflecting anything , it does look really nice and compliments truck overall
I found one on Facebook Marketplace , I'm in Massachusetts and had to fly to Michigan to get it.
I bought it from a dealership at MSRP . Customer order that fell through. I'm very happy with it so far. I still have one on order and probably won't take it. Got more truck for less flying to Motown
