Bonnet Protector Ford Ranger 2015-2022

A bonnet protector for the Ford Ranger, model years 2015-2022. On a pickup driven on gravel and construction roads, the leading edge of the bonnet chips first. The deflector takes stone and insect strikes before they reach the paint.

The supplier gives UV-stabilised ABS, a piano black finish and the option to paint it any colour. It also claims the deflector reduces air drag — with no data behind it. The photo shows a Ranger with the deflector: a dark profile across the whole bonnet edge, dropping over the headlights at the sides.

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 supplier states the mounting kit is in the box but does not list its contents.

The 2015-2022 range covers the Ranger both before and after the 2019 front-end update. The supplier does not split this into two part numbers — confirm your model year when ordering.

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.

Does one deflector fit both the 2015-2018 and 2019-2022 Ranger?

The supplier gives a single range, although the Ranger's front end changed in 2019. Confirm your model year with the supplier before ordering.
