Deflector Pros and Cons

[securityguy]

Here is my WT version...very happy and looks great! You cannot see it when you are driving. I bought a MOPAR and did not like it at all. Sold it and bought the WT.

Thanks for the post and the info. Same truck as I have, but yours is a year newer with a lot more mods! Like the pics and I may just have to add this on my truck.

Is this the WeatherTech version? Since you've had it, have it noticed any difference (ie: do they work as advertised?) or is it more just for looks?

Can you see it when you're driving or is it hidden from view with the sport hood?

I have a 2020 Limited (Black w/Black Appearance Package) and am debating about putting one of these on. I think I prefer the matte Mopar offers, but based on the reviews of the WeatherTech, I may go with that version...though it's glossy. Maybe the glossy will blend in better.

I would listen to @securityguy on this one. I had the deflector but since traded my black truck in on a granite crystal and it never looked good to me. When it was on for the short amount of time I never had any issues but it was only on for 2k miles if that.

FedEx man is delivering mine today! Can’t wait to get it installed. Sun is shining and it’s my day off. Pictures to come.

I should have mine on later today on my granite crystal. I wonder if having the night edition with the black grill and brow like will make it look better. I’m imagining it blending in very well with the black front on mine.

I think it will look terrific on a night edition

Certain angles looked better but overall not for me. On a black truck I would definitely have kept it on! I think with the night edition it should look good.

I have the Mopar standard and a Weathertech stick on. Didn't like the Mopar and the Weathertech stick on was an ordering mistake on my part. Both sitting in the garage unused. The Weathertech standard install version is awesome. Cake installation, looks and works great.

Did you go through WT direct or another site with a better deal?

I think having the night edition black grill and grill surround will make it a seamless blend. Guess we will see later!

Ordered through www.realtruck.com with some other items. Essentially the same as from weathertech. $79 and free shipping as opposed to weathertech $59 and $20 shipping. In all honesty I’m pretty sure it shipped straight from weathertech anyways.

Awesome thanks. There are a lot of new sites I'm learning about since visiting this forum, so I figured I'd ask.

Well FedEx fail...something happened and it didn’t make it onto the truck for today. Looks like we’ll have to wait til tomorrow!

Got it late last night. Installed this morning. Super easy! Plastic trim pin puller tool and the rest was a breeze. Took all of maybe 5 minutes. Looks great on my granite crystal night edition!

Deflectors are not my cup of tea. I would do PPF instead, but that’s just a personal prefrerence.

Looks much better than mine when I installed it!

PPF won’t do anything to help with the bugs and even rock hits.

Thanks! Still waiting for my bilsteins to ship....

I run the AVS bug deflector, as well as AVS window deflectors. Easy install, holds up against car washes, and does catch a lot of the bugs/debris on the highway. I’m a big fan of it

I have the WT. I was slightly off on my initial install. I'd say about 1/4'' - 5/16'' to the passenger side. I am going to try and readjust it. I bought replacement fasteners, just in case. The ones that come with it are not very good.
