bug guards? Hood protection or more drag?

Our Expedition had a hood deflector. We just took it off when we got the unit. Istorbo lang sa pagbukas at pagsara ng hood. And the plastic gets scratched easily.

Wala naman kaming nagiging problema with stones on the highway.

Madami lang bugs na tumatama sa windshield. But the wipers take care of that.

not: its a nice accessory but me its just a hassle and only good for enhancing the look of the car. I had one on my gq patrol .. sure it works, especially when u pass by a tree with falling leaves, its nice to see that leaves won't stay in the hood because it'll be deflected to your roof or to the side.

I removed it for the reason that someone tried to steal it! Maybe he thought, that by removing the clips at the side, he would be able to remove it, only to find out that it is still screwed inside the hood.

the result is a broken hood guard, goodbye P2,500. It was chipped off at the area of the clip but putting it back would not look that good, and would be asymmetric..

hope it'll help you decide..
