That looks great. How much does it help with bugs? Did you notice a significant difference before and after? I'm not worried about stones as much as I was debating between putting PPF on the front half of the hood, but I'm also trying to solve for the very vertical windshield- bugs, stone chips, etc. Also, is there any noticeable change in wind noise for better or worse with the deflector?
@Vrrooom

I travel all over the place via the interstates. I do a lot of NY to Florida, NY to RI, NY to Calif. and more... As mentioned over 30,000+ miles with that deflector installed.

Yes, it seems to be helpful in propelling bugs.. Love Bugs and more UP and over the windshield so they do not smash into it... YES, I still get bug hits but less for sure.. No rock chips on hood.

As or stone chips.. I have had one (knock on wood) in the 30,000 miles + with the stone guard. Would I have had more without the guard... who knows...

NO, change better or worse, in wind noise with the guard....
.......... and that is even with me running a soft Sunrider for Hardtop (Twill) for all 30,000+ miles..

.....AND that is with many many many miles fighting cross winds and at high speeds ranging from 65 to 85 mph on the interstates.

Has not faded either... I treat it with 303 protectorant on occasion.... Lots of Florida Sun and no fading...

Jeep looks great, love the white and black accents. What bull bar is that on the bumper? DO you have a link? And for the wind deflector on the hood; do you like it? Any negatives? Does it help?
It is the MOPAR Grille/Winch Guard:

Rhinebeck already answered the question on the wind deflector - it seems to work pretty well. My main reason for getting it was to cut down on stone chips, so far so good. I actually sell PPF for a living but haven’t had a chance to have anyone install any yet. Also, I like the white and black accents, but decided to make a little change in the wheels:

Picked it up a few weeks ago. First non-GM product I’ve owned in over 35 years. It’s now sporting a hardtop and some fender vent decals, but otherwise stock for the time being.

Looks awesome dude.
How do you like the rival bumper? It’s at the top of my list.

how was install & fit and finish?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks! The bumper is really nice. Recessed winch, 6 mounting holes on the bottom, places for a bar or lights on the top, highlight points too. It’s modular and the coating is done well. No issues so far. And by far the best packaging I have seen. I also like the hook and d ring shackle combo on the front. I’ll post a video at some point here.
