  1. Paint Matching an Aeroskin II Hood Deflector (DIY)

    They come with the tape applied. Whether it is 3M or not I don’t know. I added additional 3M automotive trim tape but it was thinner that was what already there. As the panels have many angles, the additional tape probably does make contact with the body. I’d suggest that if they did fly off...

    Chip the paint of the deflector? For sure they will. I expect it to be destroyed with chips. But that’s its purpose.
  3. Paint Matching an Aeroskin II Hood Deflector (DIY)

    It’s not installed for bugs. It’s installed to save the windscreen. It diverts air higher up to reduce the risk of replacing your windscreen. Many, many, many, many posts on here regarding this subject.
  4. Paint Matching an Aeroskin II Hood Deflector (DIY)

    I remember about 20 years ago when I was converting a commercial VW T5 Transporter into a camper, the trend was to paint the bumpers. All the early attempts would peel rapidly. Eventually, there appears to me some that stood up to wear and tear. I’m presuming that the adhesion promoter is...
  5. Paint Matching an Aeroskin II Hood Deflector (DIY)

    Wow. That is far nicer than mine. Especially with that colour. White isn’t so bad as it doesn’t show up the imperfections. Mine looks nice from 3 feet away. I read somewhere on here that there was a change in supplier or someone was bought out. So I’m guessing they dropped a lot of products...
  6. Paint Matching an Aeroskin II Hood Deflector (DIY)

    It’s made out of thermoplastic polyolefins (TPO) according to the Husky website. This is why I chose to sand down the red primer coat and apply the adhesion promoter. That being said, it still is very fragile and I’m wondering if the Dupli-color paints are up the task of being a coating to this...
  7. Paint Matching an Aeroskin II Hood Deflector (DIY)

    I couldn’t face sticking a textured Aeroskin II hood deflector onto my Oxford White Wildtrak. So I spent weeks searching for an IAG Gloss White version or a simple gloss black, which would at least match the Wildtrak gloss grill. Both appear discontinued. Also, there was a gloss black version...
  8. Life after crack?

    No it doesn’t. I forgot I’d seen that. And yes it does look very nicely done. Would look even better in tan.
  9. Hood deflectors - worth it?

    Here is a very good review of the paint. Personally, having owned Toyota products before as well as numerous other manufactures (18 vehicles in total), the Bronco has the thinnest paint I’ve ever seen.

    Snow brush mount is a brilliant idea.

    That looks cool. Did you use spacers? Finally, I found a set of Wildtrak wheels for sale. Should be problem solved. I might actually get them painted and use them as the summer wheels.

    Thanks, I had misread your comment.
