Buying Hood BugShield, which one to get? please look....

[unpredictable1]

i need to order one quickly but here is what i DON'T want...

one that has non secure ends that flap in the wind at high speeds....

does anyone have a VentShade one? I see now that VentShade also sells a BugShield 2....looks the same as their other one from what I can see...

I have a Reese Outfitter that I got from Farm and Fleet - only $36 and it's tough as nails.

hey we have the same truck! i have the bugshield 2. i think the difference is it wraps around the front unlike the 1st version. it looks great and is very secure. it comes with 4 screws i would highly reccomend puttin in b/c other wise the sticky tape will slowly come off and the shield will come off. i got mine from pepboys for 40 bucks. good luck!

I have the Lund one that wraps all the way around. I dont remember how much I paid for it, it was a while ago. But it looks really good.

I purchased a replacement VentShade Bugflector II this past weekend. My first one had been on since I purchased the vehicle (1996) and it finally just cracked. I paid $40.00 at Pep Boys, which was the cheapest I had found one. I think, the Lund usu. runs a little more expensive, but I haven't seen a Lund up close, so it may be a better quality. But I was happy with the VentShade. My only complaint with this one is , it has "BugFlector II" in small white letters on the front of it. I didn't remember my first one having that.

My bugshield was on before I got the Explorer so I don't know what kind it is but my aunt has one by Lund on her suburban and the quality of that one seems better. I think my dad has one by Ventshade on his truck and that one also seems to be good. I think either one would be a good choice. The only one I ever had that cracked was a cheap one from JC Whitney.
