If you have ever owned a vehicle, you’ve most likely fallen victim to the unfortunate event of a rock chip on your vehicle's painted surface. Chips in your vehicle's paint are sometimes caused by stones or small rocks, hardened salt chunks, bugs, or other debris that is kicked up by other vehicles on the road onto your vehicle. This causes unsightly dents or paint chips on your vehicle's front end, like pimples on a face. Good news, there is a way to prevent or even limit the damage by using a WeatherTech Stone & Bug Deflector or a WeatherTech Hood Protector. One common question WeatherTech receives is, "Which one do I need?" Let’s take a quick look at the differences between each one so you have all the information you need to make the right decision for your vehicle.
