Fit like a glove on 09 Rav4 and looks nice see picture
By James
I was worried to buy this product due to the fact I could not find any pictures of what it would look like on my 09 Rav4, and it has no other reviews. It was shipped fast and was protected fine from damage. It was easy to install (in about 5 minutes, anyone can do it no drilling or screws) and looks nice (see a picture I added to product page on my 09 Rva4). I would order from here again with no problem.

SO FAR SO GOOD ON 2011 RAV4
By froggy
So far I am happy with this purchase. Looks great on my new 2011 RAV4 Sport model. Before deciding on this brand, I looked at other manufacturers bug shields including TOYOTA OEM model but they all lacked the features of the WADE model. It gets great reviews on RAV4World website - see forums on subject. Biggest advantage/feature over competition is the fact that this shield covers the entire length of the hood on the RAV4. The benefit of this feature is that you have more deflection/protection on your hood over a greater surface area. Most competitor's bug shields do not provide this protection - they are not as wide. Also, the Wade model has a lower profile and follows the contours of the RAV4 hood projecting only several inches above the hood allowing for a more aerodynamic and custom look that is missing from the competition. The tint seems to match the tinting of my windshield and windows and complements this look. Installation was a breeze and I detect no vibration n or windnoise from it so far at highway speeds. A bonus is the price of this unit. It is a real value at around $50 compared to competitor's pricing $80 -$120. Hopefully it will hold up to the SW Florida sun. I highly recommend it to anyone who is thinking about purchasing a bug shield. Sometimes you do get what you pay for!
