Hey everyone, I'm looking to get one of those plastic hood deflectors for my car. I've checked with Hyundai and various other stores and ebay to see if they sell them, but to no avail. I am getting some touch-ups done on the car soon and noticed that most of my stone chips are located in the spot where the deflector would be. Anybody have one for sale or know of a place where I can get one?

Thanks,

Nick

I leave more than enough distance to avoid almost any stones that get flung my way under normal circumstances. However, I live right by a dirt road and everytime some idiot driver decides to turn in front of me, or an idiot driving a pickup truck decides to pass me, I get dumped on. I know they don't look awesome, but I'd rather not have to get touch-ups done on my car every year when a simple hood deflector would solve the issue.

Thanks, Patreezy! I had never heard of that stuff before. I've inquired and there's actually a shop that deals with this product nearby. I'll go have a look at pricing.

Someone can close this topic now if they want.

Thanks again!
