Lovethedrive Wind Deflector

Just wondering if anybody has any reviews on the lovethedrive.com wind deflector for the Camaros?
Wondering how it compares to the factory GM version?

I'm in the market for one also, but I think I'll stick with GM's version.
I noticed that your in Canada, what's the best site you found for pricing?

The best price I found was:
http://www.shopchevyparts.com/exteri...-92255595.html $322.00
Problem is the cost of shipping and of course tax/duty.
Thinking convertible group buy.???

I'd be in as well.
Rather have the Camaro logo then the lovethedrive badge.

Had the Lovethedrive wind deflector. Nice but no Camaro logo. But, this is what they do - they make a very good product and have excellent customer service. Biggest difference is that it does not fold in half (side to side) like the GM version.

Guess the folding in half would help when you store it?
Good point.

I assume it would - but personally have not seen the GM deflector. The Lovethedrive does fit easily in the trunk though.

And yes, they are both overpriced for what you get, but need to weigh the benefits if you do much interstate driving with the top down. I didn't see much benefit below 50 mph.

After waiting 3 years and not being able to make a connection to buy yours, I was finally able to pick a GM one up off of Ebay for $177; just like new. I agree the prices are way to high on this item and $200+ is stretching it a little. Can't wait to try mine out this summer!

Sorry we couldn't connect, but you got a much better deal on ebay. Hope you can enjoy it soon.
