Air / Bug Deflector ??
Yes or No
I've been getting alot of black flies and misquitoes on the windshield.
Will the air deflector work?
Do you guys think it looks ok?
I am putting black trim things on my jeep.
thanks

I am sure it will most likely have a positive affect, but I doubt it will completley solve your problem. As for how it looks, its your JK, as long as you are happy with it nothing else matters!!!!!

Yeah, P/W, I've heard they don't do a thing....The front clip/grille on mine REALLY collects bug juice, but at least most stations have squeegies for the glass

i have one on my jeep and it doesnt do anything unless you are doing around 80 or 90 all the time.. then it only deflects to the upper middle part of the windshield.
the only reason it is on there is it was there when i bought it and it doesnt bother me enough to take it off.

I had one of these on an old pickup truck. It stopped some bugs but it caught more leaves and debris than it was worth. I ended up finding a small bug ecosystem behind the thing when I first cleaned it out.

I've had em on several pickups and they reduced bugs on the windshield a lot. I was prob doing 50k interstate miles a year up and down the east coast and when I got to SC and GA/FL......damn! Mosquitoes like small birds were splatted all over! Can't say they would help my/your JK but if its a bad problem, buy one and try it out. Go with a name brand if possible.... Lund, etc. Auto Parts stores brands aren't as good.

I've got one and
It doesn't help to prvent bugs hitting on the windshield, but it sure helps to prevent bugs hitting on the hood.
I do actually like the look with it.

You JK has a flat window that sits at roughly 110 degree sloped angle. Those bugs are coming for ya. Don't get the "bug/wind" deflecter. It won't do shit.
