EGR 303471 Superguard Bug hood guard dark smoke compatible with select Ford models

Just got a new 2021 Ford F-150. This is the 3rd Bug Shield I have tried and the only one I could get to work. You pop 4 of the plastic fasteners for the foam seal on the hood. First, the pieces they give you to pop in the hood to hold the mounting screws do not stay in the holes. I had to tape mine to try and get the screws in. Second, the two inner holes do align with the slotted holes in the bottom the shield almost perfectly, but the two outer are at the VERY outside of the slotted holes. So much so, that I had to come up with another solution. Fortunately, we have a shop and I found some mounts that would work. THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM. The previous two suffered the same issue, only so bad I sent them back. The two outer slotted holes need to be moved about and inch outward on both side. OVERALL, I love the look of the thing, just be aware, some inventiveness may be required.

After discarding supplied worthless screws and anchors I needed to use my own 1 1/2 sheet metal screws, making new install holes. After install (2 hours) my 2018 F150 XL Sport hood would not close/latch. The bug guard was too thick; larger than the gap between grill and hood. When ordering I was told this part fit my truck. Returned item. Investigate fitment!

The bug shield is reasonably priced and looks good on my F-150. However, the supplied clips that attach the shield tabs to underside of hood swim in the holes; even with the screws tightened down the clips easily pull out. The installation is made difficult since these clips also easily fall out during installation procedure before the screws are set. Advisable to cover engine area with tarp so as not to loose parts.If you buy this bug shield for F-150 you should replace the provided clips with more snuggly fitting ones. You can make the clips in amazon product B07Q1P2T87 work for this application.EGR should address this attachment issue by at least providing alternate snuggly fitting clips for F-150's. Then a higher rating would be justified.

After I threw away the mounting hardware and used my own I purchased at the home goods store, I was able to screw it to my hood in 10 minutes. I waisted 90 minutes trying to use the mounting hardware sent from china. So to me this is a buyer beware purchase. If you are a skilled installer you can figure it out by using your own screws and double sided sticky tape.

It looks amazing and I like the end hood mounts. The clips for the inside of the shield are absolutely horrible and too short. I need to visit an auto part store and find fastener buttons/clips to secure it properly. Currently the side clips, one working clip and weight of hood are keeping it secure.

I had to return this item. It did not fit my 2021 F150.

The quality of the product is great. However, it was a little bit of a pain to install by myself. The biggest issue was the 4 screws provided were too short to go over the factory rubber hood molding, through the bug shield tabs and then grab into the plastic anchors. I wound up screwing the bug shield directly into the anchors in the hood, and laid the rubber molding on top of the shield tabs. Doesn't look 'perfect', but it also doesn't cause any issues when opening or closing the hood.

I have had EGR bug shields in the past so I figured I would put oneon my new 2016 F150. 15 minute job at tops, so I thought, I couldn'thave been anymore wrong. First of all the screws aren't long enoughand the white inserts are to small to properly seat in the holes createdwhen you pull out 4 plugs holding the weather moulding. I ended upsuper gluing the white inserts to hold them in place. Next came the realfun. working upside down, you must insert the undersized screws throughthe weather moulding, through the shield tab, and finally into the white insert.All the while making sure that the shield is centered on the hood. If you have aback that isn't in the best of condition, I would avoid this product. Poorly engineeredwithout regard to installation.On the plus side, it does look good and doesn't create a whistling sound at highway speed.If i had to do again, I would not have bought this product.

Don't order, impossible to install. Cannot return it without paying the freight which is expensive makes it not worth returning. Impossible task they instruct you to do is install 4 small "plastic screw clips" these go in loose sit loose in upside down holes and all 4 have to be orientated correctly, plus they want you to slide a friction fit a metal clip onto the painted surface of your hood, the paint "protected" by a tape strip. Paint damage will happen. Some products, like heart surgery, should not be sold on Amazon.If you still want one mine is as new, 1/2 price sale. Read the instructions before ordering. There is an instruction addendum to add rubber washers, sounds like an attempt to stop the reported cracking.

I had trouble with the mounting expanders staying in place. I ended up using pop rivets instead

merci tres beau produit

This does NOT fit a 2021 model F150. Tries for an hour before realizing this does not fit! This will fit any model before 2021. $187 I paid at the time of purchase for false information. NOT. COOL.
