Jeep guy Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Drove the family to Florida for the week. Washed the caked on salt and found some nice stone chips where the bug deflector should be. Made my stomach turn. Tomorrow driving to the nearest jeep dealer to buy a deflector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Sizzle Chest Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Enjoy your stay! Yes, the love bugs are starting to come out! Damn them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 LFairbanks Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 IMO those factory bug deflectors are more trouble then they are worth. Look nice in the beginning, but after a few years there will be wear, whether it be under the hood or where a bumper fell off and you didn't notice it.

0 jbjones85 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I would personally go for a clear bra to help protect against stone chips. maintains the lines of the car but still offers protection against chips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 mc2hill Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Try Jimbo's barbecue - excellent ribs, very good pork, and good sides. But beware - this is a barbecue joint, not a fancy place - the restrooms are 'out back'. LFairbanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Jeep guy Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 I bought paint defender from 3m at autozone. Went on easy and looks good. I'll be happy if it last only a few weeks, so I'm not expecting much out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
