Profile Plus Bug Deflector

[Archive]

Anyone using the Profile Plus Bug Deflector. The one that attaches mechanically at 3 points and with the 3M hook/loop at six points? I have had the 3M hook/loops fail and can not find anyone who sells replacements. Im have tried to contact Profile Plus but ti no avail. Apparently they don't exist anymore or are operating under a different name. The paper work that came with the stuff only had a mailing address. Anyone offer any help?

Is there any reason you couldn't just get some adhesive back velcro from the hardware store and cut it into little pieces?

I tried Velcro but it has plastic hooks on one side and cloth loop strips on other side. Does not hold like the original hook/loop which was plastic on both sides (no material) and came off easily. The Profile Plus bug defflector is spaced above the grille which allows wind and water to pass below. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Radio Shack has the velcro type fastener with plastic on both sides. I think they call it their heavy duty fastener.

Went to Radio Shack and they had exactly what I needed. Who would have thought after contatcting just about every body shop, auto accessory installer, etc. in the tri-state area, that Radio Shack would be the place. Not only do they have it clear(like the ones that came with the deflector)but they have it in black also. It also appears to have better holding power than the 3M stuff that came with it.
Thanks Again
