GT Styling Bug Deflector

[srkovarik]

Does anyone have a photo of a '98-00 Corolla with the GTS bug deflector installed? I can't find a picture anywhere on the internet and I'm wanting to buy one to cover a dent on my hood.

srkovarik,
I just wanted to share some pictures of the bug shield I've received from carid...I hope this helps others since they don't have an actual image of the item on their webside; I'm going to upload more once installed:
note **98-00 corolla**

Yep thats the one that i have. I post a pic of mine on the picture forum. I think your gonna have to drill/tap holes under your hood because i dont think the holes line up well (thats what happen to me).

That is the same on I have on my 02. I had to drill holes as well.





Mines not tinted it the one called carbon fiber look. Looking forward to seeing the pics of it on your car.

My project is not finished yet... sorry about that.
I installed the bug shield just for a couple of shots (holes not drilled yet) since I'll take her to the bodyshop to get a fresh paint job soon...already installed new hood and front bumper, new headlights assembly on the way!

For over $60 you would think this part would fit the hood from the factory. Every other bug shield I've ever used fits with no modification. Seems kind of ridiculous. Can you just use self tapping screws?

I guess when only one company offers the part you do what you have to. Looks good though, so I think I'll get one on order.

Yes, all what you need is a power drill, center the shield, hold it in place (the shield has pre-drilled holes) and use the 2 tapping screws/nuts they provide in the package...Not really a big deal
