2009 Aveo 5 - Hood Deflector options?

Hi there,

I'm a new member, but a long time Aveo fan. My wife and I leased a 2005 Aveo 5 and then later purchased a 2009 Aveo 5 after the lease ended. It's a great little car for us and our family.

For years now, I've been looking for a bug/hood deflector... one of the plastic style ones. But I haven't found one as of yet. I've seen pictures of other Aveo 5's from our generation that have plastic hood deflectors, so, they clearly exist.

Does anyone know of a supplier for such an item? The angle of the hood on these vehicles is prime for stone chips, etc.

Thanks in advance :)

I take it I'm not the only one having this problem :)

General motors should be able to order you one.

GM doesn't make one.

i'm still trying to figure out why you would want one?

To prevent stone chips?

What the above poster said. I've got a couple chips in my hood right on the nose.

Hey there, thanks for that tip... my business partner had that on a Chevy Truck he had, and although it does handle the small chips, it doesn't help with the larger stones that always seems to hit me at highway speeds :)

Just to be clear, you want a plastic one that sticks up rather than a bra-style one that lays flat?

That is correct.

Hi. Did you EVER find the plastic/Lexan hood deflector for your Aveos? I found out like you YEARS ago they stopped making them,and my OEM one is getting old,at 14yrs now and I am searching for a replacement. IF you ever found one, or have one,still have the car/cars, what did you get? The vinyl 'bra' gets dirt and junk trapped under it and ruins the paint. The upright plastic one makes the front look wider and better to my eyes, and frankly the car needs it, badly! So I have just put up a NEW post seeking maybe another car makers hood deflector that fits the Aveo. So...did you have any luck?? I know it is many years now, but gotta ask.

Thanks.
