I apologize if there is a thread on this already, I searched but did not come up with one. Kinda thought there would be but maybe its me that just couldn't find it. Anyway.
Anyone installed a hood "bug" deflector yet? Do they make one that fits the 21's yet? Any advise and photos would be great. Thanks every one.

Ordered from Ford online and installed it. Might be hard to see with clouds, rain, and smoke on Antimatter Blue.

Thanks!

And, yes, a gap. There are 5 hard rubber cones with sticky backs that attach to the truck under it. Zoom the third picture to see them.

I thought bug guards were an old fashion accessory, I’m surprised to see them coming back. It actually looks pretty cool. My last truck was an ‘18 and that area got beat with rock chips.

I purchased the Ford Hood Deflector for my wifes 21 Explorer and will be purchasing for my 21 F-150 when it arrives. Very good quality but the instructions suck

Thanks been looking and did not see that on the AVS website. I have my truck booked in for 3M PPF next Wednesday but will likely put a colour match Aeroskin on when they come out.
