Do you mean dull and faded when they get older? They do polish right back up like new, I just did the one on mine.

Yeah.. I have seen some pretty bad ones.. Not sure if it is just cheap plastic or the Heat that makes them look pretty bad..

Either way I guess it's like everything else.. Taken care of It will look better and serve a useful purpose longer..

I have a black tinted Wade bug deflector. Had it for two years, no cracks, no fading, and it works and looks great!!!

I think blazers looks good with the bug shield. Just saying. I got mine for 5 months now and I totally like it. Besides, its kind of helpful. If you know what I mean.

Personally, I think they are a waste of money. You get just as many bugs on the windshield as without. They also screw up the windshield sprayer pattern.

But, if you like the way it looks, keep it. If you don't, take it off and sell it.
