    3rd gen definitely looks better without that piece.

    My last bug deflector was on an 80s ram. Over 65mph the wiper fluid actually sprayed the wrong direction and ended up going over the truck due to the Venturi caused by the bug deflector.

    I don't put screen protectors on my phone. Because they look like crap. I feel the same way about buglfectors, film, front-end-bra's etc.

    I used to have one on our Honda Pilot, made no difference. My windshield had a ton on chips and cracks...looked like a map:D, so I'd say no. This almost reminds me how about 20 some years back people (including myself :rofl:) would buy one of those vinyl "car bra"...it did more damage than prevent :cool:!

    That's right! I even put tape on window vent visors on my truck because I like them and I'm the one paying the monthly bank note. If the hater's would like to make my monthly payment I'll do things to suit them.

    So I have a super white, will the smoke look odd? Looking to get some protection from bugs and highway rockage. Do you need to steer clear of car washes with this accessory?
