Bonnet Protector Volkswagen Crafter 2017+
A bonnet protector for the second-generation Volkswagen Crafter, built from 2017. It shields the leading edge of the bonnet from stone chips and insects — on a van, that area suffers first.
The supplier gives UV-stabilised ABS, a piano black finish and the option to paint it any colour. In the photo the product lies beside the vehicle, with the full set of mounting parts laid out below it.

Fitting and notes
The deflector arrives covered with a protective film — which is why it looks matt and frayed at the edges in photos. The film comes off at fitting, and only then does the true gloss show.
The product photo shows the mounting kit: six clips, six screws, washers, caps, a strip of tape and an illustrated instruction sheet. The supplier does not say whether fitting requires removing the bonnet seal.
This reference covers only the Crafter from 2017. The older 2006-2016 Crafter takes a separate deflector (TXBP 04.008).
Frequently asked questions
Why does the deflector look matt in the photo?
Because it is covered with transport film. Underneath is the piano black gloss.
Can the deflector be painted to match the car?
The supplier says it can. It does not say which primer to use — that is a question for your paint shop.
What exactly is in the mounting kit?
The product photo shows six clips, six screws, washers, caps, a strip of tape and an instruction sheet. The supplier does not confirm this in the written description.
