I got the Stone White two tone color scheme.

I put on the Mopar hood with the twin black vents and used the chrome bug deflector from mopar as well.

AMAZING looks!

The truck naturally has alot of chrome (laramie) so the deflector really belongs there.

I put the smoke bug shield on my sport (stone white), along with the Mopar mud flaps. The dark color of the bug shield goes nicely w/ the black flaps.

FWIW. I had some on my DAk. I like them alot, but will probably never put them on again. They made lots more wind noise than I like.

sorry to say this but IMO all bug shields are ugly, though ive never used one so not sure how useful it is

Anyone have experience with the "InvisibleMask"-like products for a Dodge Truck ??
I've had this for a sports car previously, and couldn't complain. But...

I wouldn't get one for the 'coolness' factor or looks -- but I've been told that with this truck I'll get damage to the front of the hood over time due to bug strikes and that a bug shield is a necessity.

Besides - I'm getting tired of scraping the damned things off of the windshield.

Last week I drove into a swarm of bees - what a freaking mess.

You must have a higher concentration of bugs than i do because i dont think ive cleaned one bug off the truck yet. Now if they made a bird **** deflector i would buy it in a heartbeat!

And it sucks to be behind the wheel ducking and flintching when one hits.
