They can actually improve your vehicle's gas mileage.

One of the most promising ways to improve gas mileage is through vehicle aerodynamics. Apart from reducing the weight of your truck and its cargo, there are several enhancements available to boost aerodynamics. Aftermarket accessories such as side fairings, deep-angled bumpers, trailer skirts, pickup truck bed covers, truck cab spoilers, and hood shields are phenomenal replacement parts and upgrades to boost vehicle aerodynamics!

With spring comes warmth, light, life… and also bugs. These pesky critters can stick on your vehicle’s exterior or enter the cabin without an invitation. Bug deflectors for cars work by redirecting the airstream of your vehicle up and over the roof, instead of across the hood and windshield. The streamlining of air over the vehicle also has a small positive impact on aerodynamics, which is a plus for improving gas mileage.

There are a wide variety of designs of bug deflectors for pickup trucks and cars. Many are vehicle-specific to custom-fit individual makes and models for optimized airflow and aesthetics. From low-profile designs to standard profiles, to tape-on and bolt-on designs, there are so many bug deflectors for cars to choose from. Popular brands like AVS bug deflectors offer an array of colors and styles to customize with.
