    After getting 2 rock chips on Tx roads in the past month, I need to implement something to help the matter. Who makes the best fitting best performing bug / rock deflector for our trucks?

    Thanks!

    AVS for style and windshield protection from bugs mostly, or a bra for rock and bugs.

    I have the clear bra, but the rocks are hitting my windshield, and I'd like to help keep the bugs off the windshield too.

    The AVS fits well and deflects about 50% of the bugs, I really like mine. But good luck on the rocks...
