Exactly my thought

Yes it is rubbing a little bit on the top of the grill but is completely covered by the hood deflector itself. Will be noticeable if I remove deflector though.

@@4LOWeRUNNER thank you. I’ve since purchased one and installed it. I chose to put 3M door edge guards on to protect the edges. 3M Door Edge Protection Film, 08582. Walmart had the best price. Thanks again!

Yes, it's lifted 3" with Icon stage 7 suspension kit. Also, 1" wheel spacers and factory tire size.

No KDSS but I do have front and rear sway bars removed.

@@4LOWeRUNNERput the rear sway bar back on. You'll get more front articulation.

Plz tell me how those terra grapplers held up to hard off roading?. i keep replacing on my trail edition because the factory ones were great.but no serious off roading for me... yet?

Stage 7 Icon suspension and 1" BORA spacers. In this video, it's completely stock though. You can see the upgrades in some of my other videos. I will be doing more upgrades soon.

@@4LOWeRUNNER what did that run you?

@@JV220 Suspension was $4k and spacers were like $120.

@@4LOWeRUNNER sorry if you've covered this in other videos, but did you install that yourself? Does that $4k include labor? Oh, and how does it drive around town compared to stock?

I'm not sure why I didn't see your question earlier. I installed everything myself. That was price for parts only. The vehicle handles amazing on the road. Honestly, I never thought hydraulic suspension could work so well. I am definitely satisfied with the performance. Even with 3" lift, it handles way better on the road over factory suspension.

The roof rack is a Yakima Mega Warrior that comes with the 4Runner Venture, Land Cruiser and now 4Runner Trail that I know of. You don't have to purchase a vehicle to get one though. yakima.com/products/megawarrior

@@4LOWeRUNNER thanks!

WeatherTech does make one that is tight to the vehicle. It is the hood protector. What I install in the video is the hood deflector. Check out www.weathertech.com/toyota/2020/4runner/hood-protector/

I hope to get a video done for a long term review but it may be a bit. No dust or dirt or leaves or anything like that gets stuck in mine. The only part I have noticed that rubs a little is on the top of the front bumper. It is scuffing a little but the deflector covers it. There is no rubbing or paint chipping on the hood at all. Just on the top of the bumper the deflector is rubbing because the fit is snug. I imagine with a little adjustment this can be avoided. Hope this helps.

The tire size I have currently is stock 265/70-17. It came with the Nitto Terra Grapplers. Planning to upgrade to 285/70-17 Nitto Ridge Grappler or Trail Grappler now that I just installed my stage 7 Icon suspension kit last week. Video soon to come.

@@4LOWeRUNNER Very nice, did it go well with KDSS? How much lift did you get? I read that Toyota dose not recommend above 2" for KDSS.

I don't find too many bugs on my windshield so I guess it's doing its job. Haven't had any further rocks or stones hit either.

I live in Midwest and it doesn’t do much in the way of bug deflecting as far as I’m concerned.

It does settle in after some time. My hood is much easier to close than when I originally installed. Sorry for the delayed response.

I only watched this to see if this is the deflector that I want to buy. Little did I know that I would learn how to wash a 2020 Venture. I think a better title for this video should be, How to wash a 2020 Venture and install a Weather tech defector all in one day.

Yes, I should have done a lot more trimming. They will improve over time. Thank you for the feedback.

I did originally get that by accident but I didn't want anything that actually attached to the paint on the hood. The protector is just to protect the front edge of the hood while the deflector is meant to deflect stones and bugs away from the hood and windshield. The protector attaches by adhesive on top of the hood while the deflector attaches by screws under the hood. I preferred the look of the deflector also.

It is supposed to help deflect small stones and bugs but I image it can't stop them all. I imagine it does do some deflecting but doubt it's really noticeable. I suppose in most cases it won't prevent a rock or stone from hitting your hood or windscreen but it may change the angle of it enough to prevent a chip from occurring.

I wouldn't bother putting them on the hood but it is entirely up to you. That being said, I have noticed rubbing on the top of the grill, underneath the deflector, so maybe that is the place to put them but this may prevent the hood from closing. I'm going to look into seeing if maybe the hood can be adjusted a little to accommodate the deflector better.

@@4LOWeRUNNER I installed today. I'll bet that the 3M adhesive back clear bra material could be used to prevent chafing in that area. I'll have to keep an eye on it. Thanks
