I'm trying in vain to find a Bug Shield and/or Deflector for my 2005 Solara. Unfortunately, they're almost impossible to find for Gen 2 Solaras. Does anyone have or know of a source for these?

Clear vinyl bra -Invisible Mask.com


Unless you're experienced in window tint installation, it'd be best to have this installed professionally. Or youtube it and make your own judgement..
Best of luck on a great idea!

I'm not really looking for a Bra at this time, but if I can't locate a decent bug shield, I might opt for one. I've pasted link showing a black Solara Convertible that has the type of bug Shield I'd like to acquire. Unfortunately, since Toyota stopped production of the Solara in 2008, they're difficult to find and some manufacturers have stop producing them altogether. I tried ordering from one vendor, but I received a reply email stating that the Bug Shield I had ordered was no longer available. (Unfortunately, I could not re-find the picture of a red Solara that I had seen with the same bug shield shown on the black convertible. The shield stood out more on the red convertible.)
