I have the AVS Aeroskin deflector. Mine is black on a black truck, so a pic would not show you much. It's been on about a year now, and it is doing it's job just fine.

Bdog, I have a set of Chrome AVS vent visors in the sales section. Not sure if that is what you are looking for.

My buddy has the AVS skin on the hood of his red '09 F150 and with the contrasting colors it looks insanely good.

On his the double sided 3M tape started to come up on the left side after about 7 months. We had cleaned the hood as instructed and the application was correct, it simply came up. Could be that he leaves it parked outside in the NC sun all the day every day but still was an issue. He simply got some new 3M tape and replaced it, good as new.

It doesn't provide much function but it looks great IMHO.

i'm not a fan of the old style front hood protector. I like the aeroskin because it's low profile and it'll provide some protection to the front of my hood. Do you think white/black contrast would look good?

Did tons of research and finally found the perfect coverage with these flares. Found them on ebay. Can't remember the name, but look for a stock blue 2010 150 as their ebay store icon. About 230 bucks shipped! They are high quality ABS flares for the money.
