$79 from the dealership. They charged me $100 to put on. Should have attempted DIY, but think it's a nice touch.

So the total was $179? Does it hold on with just double sided tape or is it screwed in under the hood? What is it a bug deflector?

It makes your Mustang look like it has a Clark Gable mustache:D

Mustang with a dirty sanchez!

that part of the nose is exactly where I have paint chips. Take care for sediment getting between the deflector and the hood

Ford emblem

Ford had to go and put a Ford emblem on it and ruin the looks of it. Like it needed on to identify the vehicle.

So where/how does it actually attach to the car? To the hood or stuck to the nose?

It looks good though and if it save some chips then well worth it.

Interestingly enough it looks good.
Concerns:
1) how it's attached and can you clean under it?
2) does it actually deflect bugs off the hood and windshield like a truck bug deflector OR is it just for looks and keeping rock chips off that nose?

More than likely it just keeps insects, etc. off the finish and stones, etc., from nicking the paint.

It seems too flush to the fascia to provide any deflections.

I had a GTS bug shield for my fox body, way back when, and it was contoured to the hood but had a little but of a lip on it on it's edge. It did a good job deflecting debris AND you could still get soap and water under it. Agree though, it *looks* like it's just sticks to that nose like a trim piece.
