I paid $395 for the paint and interior protection package for several reasons. I don't have a garage/carport. Bald eagles, osprey and geese tend to target my car with their crap (although I do love watching them fly over-not the geese though). I traded a Subaru several years back and my car's...
@MrSoxo can you please post a close up pic of the back side of the deflector where it meets the hood? My only concern (and I'm not sure it's valid) would be junk getting trapped underneath.
I love the fact that the windshield wipers are tucked in and out of site below the hood. The only exception is when you get 2" of sleet, it's very difficult to clean the area out and rescue the wiper blades. Thankfully I don't experience sleet conditions very often!

Add me to the list of surprised folks to find fabric in the wheel wells. For those of you installing mud flaps on the rear, when you pull the fabric out a bit, what's behind it doesn't instill a lot of confidence - I noticed some material on the rear drivers side (looked like cotton)...
I had this hitch tightener on one of my pickup trucks I used to have (Amazon reminded me I bought this item in 2012 - thanks Amazon - Sheesh). It worked fine on my old truck, should be fine on the BS.
