I got my Perfect Fit deflector straight from my dealer....try calling other dealers in or around your area, one of them is bound to have one or both parts!

The rear splash guards for '03 will fit but the fronts are not out yet. There are many good bug deflectors available. I have a FORMFIT that I got at a local custom shop.

I have 2 questions about hood deflectors:1) How are they mounted (assuming I don't drill anything)?--->Some closeup pix would be good!2) Do they really help from getting paint chips on the hood?

Quote, originally posted by Reynoma »Shadow,I got my PerfectFit hood deflector from http://www.carbras.com. Tell them you saw it on GenVibe.Well I just ordered my Hood deflector from them and it was supposed to be $49+$10 shipping so ~$59. I got an email from them explaining that because of the package size, the shipping would be $25 instead. So that brings my total up to $74.97!!!! I called their 1800 number and no one answered, so I left a message that I wanted to cancel my order. So we will see what happens.Does anyone know of another place to get the perfect fit hood protector from?

Ahh, I now see that they have a seperate check box that says "Hood Protector 15-25" in the middle of the 5 selections. I got ahold of Ken, and now I am calmed down He said he would get it right out to me.

Looking good! I definitely like having the deflector, I'm sure it has saved a lot of damage. I have the Weathertech version, which lacks the contours as the other deflectors have.
