Easy and inexpensive mod for the Taco
For the product iitself I give 5 stars. Not sure why some folks gave poor reviews. Installed easily on a 2015 Tacoma.- Granted you may have some tiny scratches because it comes in a box and is not boubble wrapped. Also had read the reviews so knew it might arrive in Hawaii with some scrtaches (minor, certainly no reason to return)- Granted the installation instructions are lacking (2 stars). As others have noted, throw the instructions away and just use the 6 mounting screws (actually 4 screws with plastic locks and 2 pushpins) where they line up on the hood (and they lined up perfectly) and you're done in 10 minutes. Remember there's plastic, so don't overtighten, just snug! The thin clear 2-sided mounting tape which is supposed to go all along the leading edge of the hood was a pain, and 1/2 of it was stuck to the other 1/2 when I received it (backing had peeled off), so unusable anyways. Anyways it stays in place just fine without the tape (highway tested).Bottom line, reasonable price, easy install (if you read the reviews first), and looks great!-- Update-- this deflector actually makes popping up my hood easier, clearance is so tight between grill and hood on Tacomas (2015 anyways) it is almost impossible to get your fingers in and lift. No longer a problem, now I pull the cable in the cab and the hood pops right up!

Nice
It was easy to install & looks nice. I'm a 71yr old women & my uncle ( 73 ) was going to help me put it on, but when he saw the brackets already on the hood wouldn't match up he decided it was complicated. I went home took off the brackets, lined the shade up with holes on the underside of the hood, put the bolts in & It looks like a professional installed!

Great product, easy install and warranty also. Since I’ve had it no issues with wind or warping.

Missing the adhesive prep pad (edit)
It's as described and looks like it'll fit. There's a QR code that takes you to a digital PDF that includes everything you need. They included the alcohol pads but didn't include the adhesive prep pad. If it wasn't going on my hood, I'd probably just adhere it but I don't want it flying off while I'm driving. Contacted for prep pad, will update.Edit: prep pads arrived and the hood protector is stuck! Overall, if you follow directions, it's a straight forward stick. I wish I had and extra set of hands to place it because it's a 1/4 in more on the driver side. My hand just slipped enough to make it off. Pretty happy with the look overall.

Take your time installing
Applies directly with 3M tape and is semi-permanent once in place. Recommend a two-person application to ensure perfect placement. I purchased solely for the purpose of protecting the leading edge of the hood from dings and scratches. I previously had a raised device that claimed to also be a bug deflector, which was bogus. I like the look and protection of this one and don't have to worry about tree limbs catching it or even damage from automatic car washes. Solid product for my purposes.

Bad fit. Fits great MY BAD. Thought I was reviewing window viser rainguard.
Does not fit. Too long. Had to trim and sand both ends 1/8” plus just to not overlap edges. Contour off some also. Front edges of front vents flaps over window with no place to adhere. See what happens with wind. Hope adhesive isn’t as bad as rest of product.Should have sent back. Forgot how much I paid for them until I modified..Very displeased.MY BAD reviewed wrong item... This was good product. Would suggest
