Review: Hood protector - Very easy installation, fits my pickup like a glove.
Review: Does not fit proper - I dry fitted it and it didn’t look right after cleaning the hood and started installing, it did not lay correctly I went ahead and installed thinking it would lay down and stick properly. It did not I have 2 seams in the hood and it does not lay flat. To late to worry about it now I guess if it gets tore off I will buy a different type that might fit better

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hood protector
*by R***Y on May 24, 2025*

Very easy installation, fits my pickup like a glove.

### ⭐ Does not fit proper
*by T***. on June 15, 2024*

I dry fitted it and it didn’t look right after cleaning the hood and started installing, it did not lay correctly I went ahead and installed thinking it would lay down and stick properly. It did not I have 2 seams in the hood and it does not lay flat. To late to worry about it now I guess if it gets tore off I will buy a different type that might fit better

### ⭐⭐ Don't do it.
*by D***E on August 3, 2025*

Adhesion is with tape and not all the way around. So there is no way to clean under it when it gets dirt and debris underneath. Wanted to return product because it shows returnable on the Amazon add but shipping was going to half of the $112 I paid. Better options available!
