UV-Resistant Hood Deflector Fit for 2021-2026 Bronco 2/4-Door

First off, I was very generous leaving a 5 Star rating as with most automotive items anymore these have an inferior adhesive tape either due to thickness or adhesion ability. I liked the design, and the fitment is excellent, but after reading the reviews of the wind deflector flying off of the hood after a short period of time, I was prepared to look into the issue that others have dealt with and find a way to correct the problem. It appears that the leading outside edge of the deflector has a small, raised border ridge. While it is not raised very high, it is raised higher than what the double stick mounting tape is thick, so in essence the tape does not make a firm contact with the hood of the vehicle. I removed the red protective plastic cover from the tape that is supplied and attached to the deflector then applied a second layer of STRONG double stick tape on top of their tape. With the double thickness of tape, it provides a strong solid connection to the vehicle. Follow the basics of cleaning the surface of your vehicle and then wipe it down with alcohol to remove any wax or other surface impurities. I placed the deflector on the hood of the Bronco and centered it on the hood then marked the center point with a soft lead pencil as a guide for mounting it once the tape is ready to be pulled once in place. Before mounting the deflector to the hood but after the cleaning stage I started the Bronco and allowed it to come up to temperature which also brought up the temperature of the hood surface, as the heat helped to bond the tape to the surface of the hood. I would occasionally later in the day walkout and press down on the edge of the deflector just adding a little additional pressure as the hood cooled and the tape set up solid. The design and fitment are spot on correct. I like the raised portion that runs from side to side adding an extra aerodynamic lift as the air flow is directed above the windshield. Hopefully it will also carry any small rocks, gravel or road trash right along up and over the glass wall that the Bronco calls a windshield.

Solid hood protector that goes on in about 5 minutes. It's a nice, tight fit, and it matches the rest of the trim perfectly.

Product is solid, made of of premium material. It fits my hood perfectly as well. Install took only a few minutes.

Easy to install and matches factory trim. Fits well and looks great.

Follow the instructions and procedures. Wants you use that glue activator you don't have but three seconds to slide or just. That really causes it to stick big time. If you also have a person an extra hand and you got the tape laid out like the instructions say you'll be easy and it'll be good I'm happy with what I got too by the way.

If you don’t want stone chips on the leading edge of your hood this is the perfect solution. It’s made of thick black ABS plastic and matches the factory black ABS items (flares, top, mirrors, etc.) perfectly. I used to have a 1967 Bronco and because of the angle of that windshield (the 2022 Bronco’s windshield is a little more sloped) it seemed to be a magnet to stone chips. Back then the deflector was a straight vertical piece that helped save the windshield (and hood edge) from chips. This deflector has a raised portion along its back edge to help protect the windshield. I have my doubts if it will protect the windshield as well as the original style did, time will tell. This deflector is more aerodynamic which will help gas mileage (but no one buys a Bronco for gas mileage). The deflector mounts to the hood with double stick tape (seems every accessory mounts with double stick tape nowadays), it secures so good that after going through a car wash it maintains a reservoir of water until you drive away. The hardest part on installing this is removing the double stick tape backing on some of the small pieces.

Only on the Bronco for 5 days and one side is coming off. I followed the instructions for install to the letter. Now I’m going to have to take it to a body shop to have it removed and maybe reinstalled. This has been quoted at 475 which is way more than I paid for the part. Be nice if they would compensate for this, but I don’t believe that would happen. If you buy this please change out the mounting tape for a better quality product then what is on the part.

Update : 4/30/24 Company reached out a few weeks ago said they would refund after asking how it was installed. It was installed as directions indicated. As of this date still no refund. 🤨 I ordered this hood protector product for my new Bronco middle of March has been on less than two weeks. Driving down the interstate today and it flew off my Bronco and was destroyed by traffic 😢. Very disappointed as I loved the way it looked on my ride and actually detoured the bugs on my windshield! The tape was not strong enough to hold it on. I truly thought it would last and be durable enough to stay on. A Refund or replacement would be a blessing!

Quality product, good price.

After checking reviews I decided on this to deflect the rocks and whatnot away from my windshield. It fits perfectly, looks good and goes on easy. I am very happy with it so far.

Finish is patchy, with some parts shinier than others. Can be a challenge to get this lined up exactly right on your own, use someone else otherwise it won’t fit great, see my video. The included adhesive promoters where dried out, so useless. Now, the design flaw you’ll notice, is water will collect under neath and inside it, and when you wash your truck, all the water will collect at the lip. After a week or two, I can’t actually notice any difference bugs and stones still hit the windscreen, the only benefit is protecting the front bonnet from stone chips.

Bought this in July 2024 and installed it. 8 months on the Bronco and a 10 in section of it snapped off. DEFINITELY WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.
