EGR 303475 Superguard Hood Guard Bug Shield, Matte Black Finish, Compatible with Select 15-20 Ford F-150 Models

I reviewed a lot and I'm glad I made this purchase. It looks great and goes well with the matte finish on my F-150. I like this style because it sits just a bit off the hood and appears that it will truly deflect the wind. Other brands adhere directly flush to the edge of the hood, but don't look like they'll deflect the wind (bugs, rain, road debris). Some of the reviews made me a bit nervous and I expected I would have to buy different hardware to attach it. I liked the looks of this one enough that I was willing to do that, but didn't need to. The hardware that was included worked well and the deflector seems sturdy and well-attached. I have no worries about it falling off or not being durable. The installation instructions that were included are not so great. I had a little bit of trouble installing it with those instructions. I watched about a half hour of YouTube clips and they helped a lot. What worked for me was to loosely assemble all the hardware. This gave me a vision of how it got put together. Also, note that there are two different, although similar-looking types of screws. The pointy screws secure to the plastic tabs that expand and hold the deflector onto the hood. There are two non-pointy machine screws that attach to the clips that secure to the ends of the deflector. The EGR emblem is adhered to the deflector with what looks like adhesive tape. I like the look of the emblem, but I don't think it will stay on for too long. Still, even without it, the deflector looks much better than other ones. Overall, I feel I made the right purchase. I love how this looks.

I have paint chipped from rocks and other road hazards that I wanted covered and this did the job and looks great. Best $100 I’ve spent in a while. Husband had it installed in under 20 mins. Secure fit! Fast shipping! Super happy!!!😃

Do not buy from this company. We put in our make and model of our truck and their product didn’t fit….They subtracted $35.00 for returning? How is that fair? What a scam!

Once installed it exceeded my expectations. The problem was installing it. I would of given it 5 stars if it weren't for the installation hardware problems. As others have said i found out quickly that the two main issues are the plastic inserts and the supplied short screws. The inserts kept popping out when trying to install the shield itself. Almost lost one. What i ended up doing is gluing the inserts on the hood with contact cement. Waited a half hour and that problem was easily solved. The supplied screws to fasten the shield and rubber seal are just too short. Had some sheet metal screws laying around the same diameter but about a 1/16 of an inch longer. Problem no. 2 solved. All in all took about an hour and a half. Would of been a lot shorter install time if i didn't try using the supplied screws first and immediately glued the plastic inserts into the hood.

Fits perfectly

Doesn't install completely with the design.

The bug shield is reasonably priced and looks good on my F-150. However, the supplied clips that attach the shield tabs to underside of hood swim in the holes; even with the screws tightened down the clips easily pull out. The installation is made difficult since these clips also easily fall out during installation procedure before the screws are set. Advisable to cover engine area with tarp so as not to loose parts. If you buy this bug shield for F-150 you should replace the provided clips with more snuggly fitting ones. You can make the clips in amazon product B07Q1P2T87 work for this application. EGR should address this attachment issue by at least providing alternate snuggly fitting clips for F-150's. Then a higher rating would be justified.

...but I had no issues with this bug/hood deflector. Not sure if they did a redesign or what but it looks great on my 2018 F-150. Love the lower profile and that it doesn't require bumpers on the hood. I was going to install it myself but the dealership offered to do it for free...so I took them up on it. I asked if they had any issues and they said it was a pretty straightforward install. I did have to order 3 before I got one that wasn't damaged. I'm not blaming EGR for that. I opted to spend the extra $26 to get this through prime based on the reviews for the seller who was selling it for around $64 and if I needed to return it if it got damaged in transit. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Paired with Flat Black Low profile vent visors they look good on my 2016 Black F150. As mentioned by others the hardware for mounting isn't the best. I wound up replacing 4 of the 6 screws for mounting with better quality and rubber washers and regular washer's just to hold it on better. but the fit is perfect, and it looks great.

Don't order, impossible to install. Cannot return it without paying the freight which is expensive makes it not worth returning. Impossible task they instruct you to do is install 4 small "plastic screw clips" these go in loose sit loose in upside down holes and all 4 have to be orientated correctly, plus they want you to slide a friction fit a metal clip onto the painted surface of your hood, the paint "protected" by a tape strip. Paint damage will happen. Some products, like heart surgery, should not be sold on Amazon. If you still want one mine is as new, 1/2 price sale. Read the instructions before ordering. There is an instruction addendum to add rubber washers, sounds like an attempt to stop the reported cracking.

This does NOT fit a 2021 model F150. Tries for an hour before realizing this does not fit! This will fit any model before 2021. $187 I paid at the time of purchase for false information. NOT. COOL.

had to glue in no-drill clips

The expanding plastic tabs the hold the mounting screws to the hood are a pain, often falling out of the hole while you try to use a screwdriver to install the screw, the instructions say to not use power tools, I however used a 1/4 impact driver to get the screws started and finished torquing them with a screwdriver, minus those plastic tabs, installation was pretty easy, the final product installed looks good.
