Best bug deflector?

[Gullzway]

Aeroskin2 original. Bugs/debris fly right over. They discontinued it but it may be still tucked away at some dealerships. My local one had a few when I checked earlier this year, marked as discontinued but still had them in inventory.

This one sits above the paint and does not use tape. It also protects the outer fenders. Buy from ebay and avoid the $10 shipping charge from Real Truck.

The link says it uses tape to install ?

I have it installed and no tape what so ever

Nonetheless, I called RealTruck and asked the rep about it because some here on MTC have actually installed it without issues. He said he didn't know about any fitment issues or complaints, lol!

Same here, when I called AVS to try and get some progress, they too claimed they'd never heard of fitment issues on the Mav before either. This is despite fitment issues reported in their own product reviews! The AVS representative simply took my information, asked for photos, and that was it. No follow-up. Thus, I contacted Realtruck. I guess I'm not sure why realtruck would care if a return was based off a phoned-in order vs. online, but mine was online. I did not have to return it, as Realtruck deemed it not worth shipping back. So gone, it is. BTW, I tried to leave a feedback review for this bugshield on realtruck and it too was ignored and never posted.

I just received mine and plan to try and install it today. I am already thinking I will be disappointed. I will update here if it actually fits or doesn't. I also read all of the complaints you mentioned. Nonetheless, I called RealTruck and asked the rep about it because some here on MTC have actually installed it without issues. He said he didn't know about any fitment issues or complaints, lol!

Anyway, the rep said that if it does not fit, I can return it for a full refund and return shipping will be on them since I ordered by phone directly from RealTruck.

Before ordering I was assured it had an upright angle to better deflect bugs from the windshield. It doesn't! Asked to return and they told me to just throw it away since shipping was more than their costs...which I did.

My Honda Element and Landrover had upright bug deflectors and both greatly helped deflect tiny gravel and bugs. Still looking for an upright deflector for the Maverick but no luck. AVS salesman agreed that one is needed...but they did not have one.
