Thanks for sharing. I appreciate you taking the time. I will finally "try" and install mine this weekend. I hope it works out for me just as it did for you. It's the best bug deflector in my opinion.I just installed one. Fit perfectly, straight out of the box. No drilling needed. Plastic pushpins worked fine.
Installation tip, or those installing it without an assistant: I have a piece of spongy foam packing material I use as a kneeling mat. I cut 1"x 1" x 1" cubes from it, and wedged them between the unattached deflector and the top of the hood, above each fastener hole. That pulled the bottom lip tight against the underside of the hood, making inserting the pushpins easy.
First thing I did was as soon as Maverick arrived I had Bullet Liner rustproof it & undercoat it. They also did my SIBL. Great work. I had the dealer apply Zurich Shield interior & exterior protection. I had ordered B4 it arrived a Truxedo Sentry hard roll-up tonneau cover, Weather tech mudflaps I installed and wood bed dividers. I also purchased a 6 year bumber to bumper warranty because I plan on keeping this truck a long time.
Good luck with the Zurich Shield.

Yeah I was always skeptical about these offers but I do have the paperwork listing everything covered. Zurich Shield isn't offered at many dealerships, but since I had a good deal on a new truck that I am planning to keep a lot of years I figured, what the heck.
LOVED the youtube presentation and ha ha giant hole console, I lose crap in there all the time. Thanks!
