Thanks! I could have handled the noise, but the hood shaking has me reconsidering something more aerodynamic.
That's my thing, I'm in Houston and our freeways suck and I'm always getting rocks to the hood and windshield, so I thought the Aeroskin II would be a good idea. I've noticed the hood shakes enough sometimes just in driving, I don't need something else to make it worse. I've seen an Aeroskin low profile deflector on Amazon I may get instead.
Ya it's really strange, it lifts up in the back on each side flexing the hinges. Some high/low pressure going on. I'm wondering if ags might have some effect with the flow change over the hood. I only get the flexing usually over 70mph which I do everyday on a 75mph highway. Maybe needs a vent in the hood.
I love it on mine. I can say for sure the BS hood rattles more than any vehicle I've ever owned, but adding the hood protector didn't make it any worse. No issues with noise either, although I generally have the music fairly loud. No downside at all so far for me.
I agree. I LOVE the way it looks and it does help toss highway junk away from the windshield and keep it cleaner. The hood shook before and after so I don't see any reason to not install one.
Washed, clayed, and waxed.
I may install it just to see if it makes that much of a difference. I do prefer the Aeroskin II over the regular Aeroskin. Worse thing I'll have to do is remove it if it's too much.
I had no hood movement at all until the day I installed it. Like I mentioned only does when over 70/75 mph. Hoping I can fiquire out a fix or it will come off, living with it for now.
I’m so conflicted on this. The majority of my daily drive is at atleast 75 mph so it’s probably going to be an issue for me.
I don't think it causes any additional noise at all...it is keeping most things off my hood and windshield.....I am all interstate at 80+ mph to and from work...the hood wiggles a little, but so did my Ford Edges hood......
I think I’m going to go for it. I mean I already spent money on it and have it. Worst case, I remove it if it’s a problem.

After reading these last few posts, I'm concerned with hood wiggle with it installed. However, the majority of our driving is not highway, so perhaps I'm being over concerned.

Eh, these aluminum hoods are meant to flex anyway. Mine has some slight play in high winds at high speeds (especially crosswinds) but I haven't noticed a significant difference with the deflector installed. Definitely doesn't look like it's going to fly off, by any means.
