I have one on my RRC!!! I love it!!!!

But when it wears out I will herculiner my hood instead!!!! It cuts down on glare a lot so I can actually see my spotter on certian obstacles. I recomend it also if you have lights on your roof!!!! not to mention it looks cool!!

I'll probably get flamed for this, but I've often wondered what the purpose of them was other than making your truck look different. May as well paint racing stripes down the middle of your truck.

It helps cut down on the glare for me!!!!!! It helps me when I am in an off camber section with a spotter and the glare would normally make it so I was unable to see, now I can!

My XD came stock like that and thats the only Rover I've owned so I can't really compare, but like Funrover said it helps cut down on the glare and plus I think it looks cool.

If you buy one it will be a vinyal(sp) sticker, you can paint your own on if you want to though!

I got one from the guy at Signs Over Georgia. I think he makes them for Rovers North. They go on with windex and a squeegee and are pretty tough. Mine has been on for a year and a half and is holding up really good.

www.viggdesigns.com sells them
