Having had hood damage - not just chips but dents as well, caused by rocks, if that's all any of these did, it would be a good thing just in that. Having a dent fixed and hood repainted isn't cheap.

I've got the bushwacker one as well as of a week ago. I haven't noticed a difference in total amount of bugs hitting the windshield to the extent that the bottom of my windshield is picking up as many splatters as the top post install. I have to believe it has a minimal impact. That said, I ended up having to correct a fair amount of chips up front during a 20k mile refresh so I was more concerned with simply protecting the front lip of the hood and from that perspective, it was well worth it for me.

The finish texture fits well with anything that has a fine texture powder coat but it certainly isn't a match for OEM black plastics until you dress it with something. This pic is post ceramic but any ol' back-2-black standard dressing will make it melt in and look OEM.
