The Ford OEM bug guard/hood deflector has the same letters so you don't lose the look/styling. I also have the tuff skinz letter inserts that fit perfectly and it's awesome!
Check out the tuff skinz thread and look at post#122 for pics of my hood deflector.

I am getting mine done at a shop as I'm getting the whole hood, headlights, and debating going with a white wrap on my chrome bumpers. I do all my own work, but honestly wrapping is not something i enjoy. Ill let someone who does it all the time knock it out real quick.

Super,
Take some photos when you're done with the wrap. When I get my truck in contemplating wrapping the front and rear bumper and grill matte black. Truck is magnetic.

With a strip along the bottom of the truck where the two tone would go, I think that would look awesome!

I purchased this bug shield from Realtruck.com and had to remove it. It looked really nice but after driving it 40 to 45 mph I noticed the wiper bouncing a bit. The when it started raining the wipers would dance across the windshield. Later that week I was driving down the toll road at 70 to 75 mph and noticed my hood bouncing around at the hinges. The hood looked as if it were about to blow off the truck. I contacted Realtruck.com and they said that they had never heard of this happening. All they did was tell me how to remove the shield. I left a review on their site but it never made it to their reviews imagine that.
Here is the model and link. I recommend not to buy this for a 2017 F250 ...

Ran deflectors on an Excursion and an F150 when stationed in Alaska. No problems experienced with snow, ice or double digit below zero temps.

Just told my dealer to add one of the hood protectors to my truck. They look great and solve the problem of the clear bra having to be cut around the letters.
I pick up my truck on Friday so I'll take lots of photos. Should be interesting to see how the black looks against Bronze Fire!
