It looked and worked fine, but it always bothered me that I had to mess with something new to make it fit.. Personal opinion....Wade's bugshields, ventvisors, etc are substandard quality. I'd go with the Toyota OEM or AVS if I were doing it again. I haven't personally seen any AVS products for the new Tundra yet. Guess it's a matter of waiting for them to hit the market.
I got the Vent Shade brand and it fits pretty well but there is a tad bit more of a gap between the grill and hood! With that said has anyone found a way to fit it alittle tighter to the hood?
