Bug deflector

[Storm]

Has anyone found a bug deflector that fits the hood of a ZR2? The available accessories seem to be very limited in general.

This is the only one I’ve seen.

Thank you! I just ordered mine also thanks to you. I tried to order one from GM last week but they are out of stock in the entire USA and no lead time available.

You are welcome my friend!

Installed my AVS 25881 today...very happy with it and it matches the truck great No 3M tape install crap...uses 6 existing holes in the hood and the OEM gasket. Mounts with 6 screws and washers and very tough acrylic! I usually install WeatherTech ones, but WT doesn't make one for the ZR2 hood yet.

Can you post a photo of your weathertech side window deflectors?

Can you post a photo of your weathertech side window deflectors?

Absolutely! I only did the fronts since no one ever sits in the back. I'll grab a few pics shortly.

Thank you. Those are sweet. I like how the front bottom portion is narrow. I'm assuming to not block the mirror. Do you have a model number from WeatherTech?

Does it sit right on the paint or is there some space in between? Why’d you go with the 25881 vs the 21881? The 25881 looks like it’s a little bit wider and covers more.

It does not sit on the paint and has about an inch or so gap which is why I got this style and not the aero skin. I don't want anything stuck to the paint on my hood. I did the 25881 since it provides a bit more coverage than the 21881. You really wouldn't go wrong with either, but the 25881 is the nicer of the two.

Looks great man, thanks for showing it. I'm wondering how it would look on Glacier Blue.

Wish the made the bolt on one for the Sierra AT4X, but the one that AVS has for it uses 3m tape in the middle and on the outside portion uses those 3m part protector things for clips to go onto the hood.

Those look great. Are they fastened with 2 sided tape or just a pressure fit type?
