I have been ordered to buy a "bug deflector"

[ShadowsPapa]

how about this one, I am looking at it for mine when it come in.

I wondered about that one as well. I sort of wish the MOPAR one had a more upswept rear edge. It just doesn't do a lot - at least so far. It's nice in that there's no tape holding it on, there's no drilling as it uses existing holes with snap-in nuts/clips but I do wish it had more of an upsweep to it. My wife commented last night - I thought you put a deflector on this". But one trip isn't a great way to judge it and for all I know, it might have been twice as bad without it.

I would love to have a function deflector for mine as well. The gladiator windshield catches bugs like no other and I can't stand it.

Is that the AVS bugshield? I ordered that for my 21 Ram and I guess i liked it but the only thing I didn't like was that it came with a rolled up light led strip. . It kept on coming off and moisture built up inside of it. So i ordered the one with no lights for my 21 Mojave.

Yes it is, hopefully they have improved it, cause I ordered it yesterday, if its poor, its going back.

MOPAR shield is what I bought and installed on my Hydro blue

So of those of you who have one installed now, do you think it really helps?
Any impact on mpg? If so how much?

Following this one. ShadowsPapa's windshield looks like every Jeep windshield around here, including all of ours.

DON'T ever Drill. Use existing holes or forget it.

The deflectors that use the 3M tape for installation; how easy is it to remove without damaging the paint?

 

[Sundownee]

we use 3 m tape on many decals on vehicles (OEM's), there are enough chemicals, heat guns and persistence that will easily remove this tap without damaging the paint.

What's the last thing that goes through a bugs mind before it hits the windshield?

"hold my BEER, I got this"

I ordered the Weathertech (love their products and have had many over the years) but returned this because of the way it fit. No screws only tape to hold it and very little coverage for the adhesive. Think the Mopar is the one to get.
