Thank you! How was the install? Did you have to drill any holes to mount? Any issues with noise?
No drilling, no noise. I did throw away the little squares of adhesive PPF they give you for the end attachment to protect your paint from the plastic clip and made my own slightly bigger using regular PPF.

Thanks again! I see they have a matte version too. Ordered.

Thanks for the input. I saw that one but it’s currently on back order. Kinda like the flat textured look. Happy camping!

I had a Maverick and got the deflector with the bump on it. It caused a lot of hood buffeting. Took it off, buffeting gone. No more bumps for me.
Interesting, anyone have that issue on the Ranger?

Like Shadow Dragon 24, I got the Aeroskin II installed on my 2024 Ranger.
When I got mine it was manufactured by Lund

Used my Ford points from the purchase of my Ranger to aquire it and the
SKU: VR1WZ99501A42H
RANGER 2024 REV HARD FOLDING BED COVER FOR 5FT BED

Been pleased with both.

I plan on a bug shield too. I'd get the Aeroskin 1 if it came in matte black, so it will be the Aeroskin 2.
I don't have any Ford points, and it's a little cheaper at Real Truck, at $145
I believe Ford had the mat black one for $119 but it’s on back order and no telling when it comes back

I have been getting the Weather Tech hood protectors for my last few trucks/suvs.
Made in the USA and fit great. They sell a gloss plastic stick on style with nor drilling required.

When the tools come out, the Ranger moves outside.:sun:
I connect the shop vac to the tools to help keep the saw dust down.:thumbsup:

That may be the AVS brand, which looks identical except for the log. Real Truck sells those too, but same thing: back order for several months.
AVS Aeroskin II Hood Protector | RealTruck
I just ordered a Husky Aeroskin II from Carid. Price was $129 and I got a 5% discount by calling them and asking about coupons. It is scheduled to ship today. Total with TTL was $148.

Looking to use my Ford points. Has anyone installed the Aeroskin hood protector by Husky? Works well? Deflect bugs from windshield? Durable? Other options people chose?

The Husky Liners Aeroskin Low Profile Hood Protector is one of those you-didn't-know-you-needed-it-until-you-got-one type of protection add-ons. Saves your hood from chips and dings that you notice when you're clay barring the truck. It fits the contour of the hood nicely, so it's not a bulky or flashy accessory that stands out.

We have it in stock now, ready to ship. DM me when you're ready to get one on the way!

My father on law has that one in his truck. I am not sure how well it works though. It looks good in person
I really prefer the clear bra that I have installed on all of my vehicles. Just gave my daughter my 2016 F-150 that had zero marks or missing paint on the hood.
