## Overview

The Auto Ventshade Hoodflector Bug Shield is a custom-molded, impact-resistant acrylic protector designed specifically for 2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma models.

Featuring a sleek dark smoke finish, it installs easily with 3M tape and mechanical fasteners, offering durable, all-weather protection made in the USA.

## Description

Some of the most exciting adventures happen in windy or wintery conditions. Unfortunately, blustery weather amplifies the impact of road debris on your vehicle, inflicting more damage. But that doesn’t mean you should stay home. Instead, shield yourself from the elements with the Hoodflector and enjoy safer drives on the stormiest days. The Hoodflector provides sleek, aerodynamic protection for the front end of your vehicle with its mediumprofile wrap-around design made from hard-as-nails impact-resistant acrylic. Its off-the-hood design easily deflects bugs and road debris at high speeds without obstructing your view from the driver's seat, and it installs in minutes with 3M automotive-grade adhesive. Available in dark smoke and proudly made in the USA with global materials for trucks and SUVs.

Review: Must have for trucks - I bought this for my new 21 Tacoma. It fit great & was easy to install with a Phillips head screwdriver. I had to push 6 square plastic inserts into factory predrilled holes under the hood. Then set the deflector in place & screw 6 screws with washers into those inserts. That was it. It looks really good & will protect the front edge of the hood & maybe deflect a few bugs & stones over the windshield if I’m lucky. I was missing 1 of the square inserts in my parts bag. I called the 800 # on the instructions. No biggie. The robot must have miscounted.
Review: Easy installation - So far ive had it for 2 years and it hasnt cracked or broken. Super simple to install.
