EGR Hood Protector 301695

OK, first off. I have to say it looks amazing on my car and fits perfectly everything lines up. Kind of a pain in the ass to install. Make sure you have the slots lined up and pushed in with your thumb screwing in the screws. otherwise they’ll just spin. Awesome product love it.

If I could put zero stars, I would. Too hard to install. It’s AT LEAST a 2 man job. Sending back. Mounting hardware is junk and slots in deflector leaves no room for side to side adjustment so you can center the deflector. When you try to loosen the screws you already had in and try to center it, the plastic nuts pop out. Tried 5 times to center and they popped out each time. Then you have to start all over again basically. Not worth the time or the headache.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: looks and quality of material. Price was right on the market level.

The hardware included with this deflector are terrible. The inserts turn when trying to screw the deflector on ! I ended up using my own hardware to install it. What should have been a easy job ended up taking way longer than it should have! The deflector itself does seem it be quality. The installation harware is the bad part of this!

Not my first deflector and looks are deceiving....plus instructions fail to show the mounting of the end clips....use logic and install with the threaded nut below the hood like the rest of the connectors instead of above the hoodline and if you slam the hood you'll either jam it shut and/or break the headlight pods. Install the end clips last so you can judge orientation. 11/23 update.. Basic problem is the design of the hood with limited clearance between the inner and outer surfaces of the hood and so can only take very shallow nylon retainers and short self tappers which are difficult to keep in place while both tightening and cutting threads. Can be done using two people AND to pilot the plastic retainers by running the tapping screws through the nylon retainers held securely in a vise or clamp to cut threads in before attempting install to insure proper installation. And a good idea to place a large towel over the area below to catch a dropped fastener or screw. I upgraded my review to 4 stars, detracting 1 star for the difficulty of install where both auto manufacturer design and deflector manufacturer fasteners share responsibility. In summation for me the result was worth the effort for an "off-the-hood" reflector that permits cleaning and waxing of the hood surface below over the "skin type" alternative of taping one directly on the hood surface where trapping water and crap may damage the clear coat underneath.

5 stars on looks and styling but zero stars on install hardware.... Nice looking deflector but the stupid hardware for installing it is an absolute joke after dropping one of the plastic well nuts you're supposed to put the screw into to hold it on in the middle 4 holes into no mans lamd under the hood i scrapped the screws and those stupid nuts and got 4-3/16 large head pop rivets which fit the holes perfectly and job done in one minute

Junk not good for the new chevys I installed it in less that 30min, but both end clips right and left pop off all the time, worst one I've ever bought, for the price it should work proper.

Perfect fit for my 2023 Silverado 1500. Once installed, you barely even notice it's there if you have a dark paint job like mine. Easy to install after measuring and making markings. Once its properly installed, its solid.

There products are miss leading

This was a pita to install .... Install hardware was useless Good job I have a good selection of plastic attachment plugs managed to modify one to work.

End clips slip off occasionally. Not as easy to install as depicted.
