Believe it or not, your windshield doesn’t have to fall prey to suicidal bugs or free-flying rocks. With a bug deflector (also known as a hood shield) protecting your ride’s front-end, you can say goodbye to constant windshield washing and the threat of damage. You also don’t have to sacrifice fresh air in the cab when it’s raining outside. With window deflectors (or vent visors), you can keep the fresh air in and the rain out, thanks to their aerodynamic and shielding design.
What Can a Bug Deflector Do for You?
What can a bug deflector do for you, you ask? When rocks and bugs hit your bug deflectors, they get sent flying in the other direction – rather than splattering all over your hood and windshield. This means less time spent washing and less money wasted replacing your windshield.
Most hood shields are custom-fit for your vehicle, ensuring an easy installation process and natural look. With the advanced, aerodynamic design of most bug deflectors, they typically aren’t detrimental to your fuel economy.
Why Are Window Deflectors Helpful for Your Car?
Window deflectors add benefits to your drive, too. It’s nice to get a cool breeze going, especially when your car’s heater is cranked on high thanks to Mother Nature’s wintery feelings. Well, you can, with a vent visor on your front, rear or all windows! The window shield allows you to have your window open part-way without getting totally soaked from the rain.
As an added perk, window deflectors lessen wind noise when your windows are down, creating a more pleasant driving experience for all. Vent visors also eliminate drag associated with driving while your windows are down. Less drag means your fuel economy improves during open-window driving.
Two reputable brands in the windshield-protection and rain-guarding business are AVS and EGR. Both are effective at preventing road debris from damaging your windshield and rain water from entering your interior. Although they are comparably priced, they each come with their own respective characteristics.
AVS’s large selection of products sets it apart from other brands. For example, an AVS bug deflector or ventvisor is available in a wide variety of styles (color, attachment method, etc.), allowing you to truly customize the look of your vehicle’s front-end. Whether you’re looking for the traditional, more discreet look of black deflectors or the flashy, tricked-out look of chrome deflectors – AVS is for you. Since the company’s products are custom-fit to your vehicle, you benefit from ease of installation and a OEM styling. And, their Lifetime Warranty means you never have to worry if something happens to your AVS Ventvisor Window Deflectors.
EGR deflectors are another well-known and long-lasting brand. Whether you’re looking for EGR rain guards or an EGR bug shield, the matte-black design from EGR is guaranteed to give your ride a facelift. Custom-fit for your vehicle, EGR vent visors are heavy duty and get the job done right. One of their best products is the EGR Slimline Window Deflectors. The Slimlines are discreet, yet effective, and deliver a strong representation of EGR quality.
