Default Bug/rock deflector

Does anyone have recommendations on a bug deflector/rock deflector that is durable and looks good on the 2004-2008 Ford F-150 hood? Looking for the brand and style if the company has more than one option.

Thanks!

I had to use the warranty once. The chrome started to bubble. I emailed them a few pics, and they sent me a new one, no questions asked.

I ordered mine directly from Ford. It installed easily and fit good.

I have the AVS Bugflector II. Functional, not really, but I felt like the front end was too plain without one.

thanks for the feedback everyone! I ended up getting the bugflector II as well. Easy to install and seems solid. I did notice a little bit of a whistle when you reach speeds of 70 mph but I don’t really care.

I never noticed any whistle, but then again, I never really listened for one in the first place. Looks good though!
