I dont love it or hate it, but i'm curious if you find it works. I drove my jeep through florida during love bug season and you would have sworn that I put a fender on it made completely from bug wings.. And I think in 300 miles I went through something insane like 6 bottles of windshield wiper fluid.. Obviously it will do nothing for the fender but wonder how well it works for the window.
Took me about 4 hours to scrape the bug off the fender/bumper and window!

Thanks Evo!
I had one on my old 2004 grand cherokee and it worked amazing. It stops the nasty cleaning of the outline of the hood. My wranglers 2 weeks old this was the first thing i wanted put on. I drive half hour to and from work highway. Its really worth it.

Love mine
One thing I did though so it doesn't stand out is to buy a clear gurad and then I painted the backside to match the Jeep. After 5 years it still looks new.
As far as does it work, yes it helps. I've flown through swarms and watch most of them get pushed right up and over. Sure some still hit, but it's less than it could be.
