Does anyone have this bugshield on their Stang? Or at least does anyone have any experience with this item? Is it any good? I mean, I was wondering if it's worth buying (it's only ~55 $) to have it protect the front end against small rocks/debris (quite a frequent occurency on my daily route to work). Personally I don't care too much for how it looks like in the photo, but on a black car (i.e. mine) it might not stand out so much.
Thanks for any input!

ugh [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsdown.gif[/img] The protective 'dots' on the backs of those still end up scratching the paint anyway.

WOW, does that thing look like crap, it would never grace the front end of my beast, that's for sure. I would rather deal with the chips!!!

I don't think anyone who frequents this forum would come close to actually putting one of those fugly things on their Stang. At least I hope not! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsdown.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

It is expensive, indeed, but it seems to be a much better solution!
The Ford bugshield looks really bad indeed.
