Benefits of Replacing Your Jeep Bug & Air Deflectors

Many of the bug and air deflectors are designed for dual duty as a hood protector and bug reflector. This means more of your ride is protected from dings and scratches, as well as your windshield stays clear longer. Another upside is that these deflectors add subtle style to your ride. Whether you want shiny chrome or aggressive black matte, you can easily change your ride’s look while protecting it. Most deflectors are treated to resist UV rays, which means your investment will last longer. Since they are made for direct fitment, you don't have to worry about it not fitting or looking quite right.
