New hood deflector finally arrived!

[Derwood]

After a two and a half month wait I finally got it!

Looks nice....and offers protection to the one place that takes the most cumulative punishment on the hood

Make and model? Stick on or screw on?

I ordered one when I placed the order for my truck and the dealer forgot to add it on. They provided one from Ford. I would have liked to find one with a turned up lip to direct the airflow above the windshield. Those do help to keep the Love Bugs off the windshield during the seasons here in Florida. I don't think any of the manufacturers ahve come out with that typ for this truck as of yet.

This design with the Hump in the front was discontinued (photo of blue Maverick). They claim is causes the hood to flutter at higher speeds. I searched all over and called the manufacture, but had no luck. Then I did a little research and decided that I wanted one that does not use tape (or flush mount). I ended up with the : Auto Ventshade 25980 Bugflector II Stone/Bug Deflector Fits 22-23 Maverick

I have that Lund on my 2023. Looks great on my Alto Blue. US price is $79.95...and there is usually a 15% or even 20% discount code at Accessories.ford.com

Here is the Ford Black Textured Aeroskin II Hood Protector part # VPZ6Z-16C900-A

can’t say it stopped all the bugs from splattering on the windshield probably helped plenty of bugs live another day. lol

Is this the SMOKE finish?

Is this the SMOKE finish?

That is the black textured one, similar to truck bed liner but smoother, I just put that on this weekend too.

No this is this textured finish. Paid a little more for it but like that it’s not shiny and matches the other plastic trim better (imho).

Mine is a glossy finish. They're both nice for sure though!

Yeah, I like the matte finish too. Gotta get one. Any issue going through the auto car wash?
