Just got back from a long road trip (2600mi) and cleaned about a pound of bug guts off the front end - gonna try that pre-spray next time. The trip also included finally putting on a US Millworks tow-hook plate that has been working flawlessly - a very nice piece, and as easy to install as the videos make it look (and it can take on bugs the size of small birds w/o getting bent out of shape
).
