Looks pretty good. I like the look of the bug shields. I'm just afraid mine is decreasing my fuel economy...

See, now that complements your paint and looks hot. Skan's doesn't do it for me..

I'm usually a non-bug shield kinda guy, but that's one I truly do like. Those meats definitely help.. :goldteef:

You don't like it Ryan? Look at my truck before I put it on --- looks too delicate:

I think the bug shield gives it kind of an angry eyebrows look :)

Bug sheilds definately make them look meaner. I'm not too worried about economy Chris. I threw that out the window long ago, lol

Im not a fan of bug shields. Skan your truck with the topper off and bug shield off would look sick.

I've also got a bug shield cuz the previous owner had one that hugged tight to the hood, and it rubbed all the paint off. So it's hiding a dirty little secret now :D

We've had this discussion, Chris. Remember? It's just my preferred look, I always lean towards the cleaner/smoother/less cluttered look. I think that picture that your truck looks too "delicate" in is a drop dead f'n gorgeous picture of your truck..

Ooooh, the truth comes out. smilietease

Looking Good Tony,, now you need a good coat of Electric Current Red and you'll be set.

I had a 95 F150 2wd short bed that was electric currant red. I loved that color. I still remember the paint code. EG. Correct?

EG is correct, can't wait to get a fresh paint job on my truck , maybe next year I hope.
A Reg cab , short bed is what my truck started it's life as, just made better by Centurion.

Which type? The aerodynamic that hugs the hood like Tony's? Or one that sticks straight up like like mine? Mine is like a giant vertical wall at the end of my hood. I LOVE the look of it (more than the aerodyn. ones), but I just have to believe that it's having some sort of effect...
