The result is a cleaner front end with fewer bug splatter and paint chips. Its medium-profile, off-the-hood design allows for easy cleaning and waxing while maintaining a sleek, aerodynamic appearance and installs easily with the included pre-applied 3M automotivegrade tape or mechanical fasteners. Available in a dark smoke finish and proudly made in the USA with global materials.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Does not Fit G-Series 1996 Chevy
  

*by O***3 on Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2020*

Well our first one came broken in two pieces, it broke somewhere in transit. So we waited for the replacement. We got it and well this past weekend he started to install it and well it does not fit our 1996 G Series Chevy Van. He was very disappointed.As for the quality of the product I don't know how the first one broke in two pieces but it must be semi strong since the box was also broken into two pieces. As for adhesion, I think it would stick well as long as you clean the area where you are adhering it to, it looks to be be 3m double stick adhesive.Hope this helps someone as we were unable to get it to fit our van without major modifications.

    Solid purchase
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2021*

I put these on my van over a year ago and they have stood up to weather extremes admirably. I believe it cut down on the wind noise slightly and it’s a great addition for when it is raining or drizzling. I have no complaints with this product and can easily recommend to anybody.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Perfect fit for van build.
  

*by G***. on Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2021*

Perfect fit for my 93 Chevy G20 camper van project build. Easy installation, reasonable price and quality material.
