Have one on mine certainly help with bugs for years. Certainly would recommend a good quality one and fitting is important. Not sure if the one on eBay or if anyone here has bought a review it before.
How about double sided tape so you can peel the bugs off?Thats it on. Think it might need a little something to lift it. View attachment 135274 View attachment 135275
Is the goal just to protect the bonnet or does it also deflect the airflow to blow insects over the windscreen?If the goal is to protect the leading edge of the bonnet, wouldn't some thick black tape e.g. Marine non-Slip tape, be simpler and tidier. Also wouldn't be knocked off when driving through vegetation etc
I would prefer it to have some function rather than just looks though.I dont give two hoots what its goal is, looks well and i like it.
Maybe, but I don't put things on just because they look good, I'm not into bling. I did swap my rims because I found some original 80 allys at a good price.Thats like saying " i wont put those tasty looking rims on coz they gain me no practical function"

Edited.
I hope it does help to deflect the bugs because I've just bought one.
Cant say we have a problem with bugs in this part of the world. My bonnet is 25yo original and shows very little despite coming from Scotland- which is the centre of the midge universe. however if you like your bling I suppose you could always fit a sun roof deflector to protect the roof while you are at it at it
