Vehicle Fitment

• 2017 GMC Acadia Limited (SLE, SLT; 3.6L HFV6 V6; FWD/AWD) - 1st-gen carryover fleet/retail model

Fitment Notes

• Fits 1st-generation GMC Acadia facelift (Lambda platform) - the 2013 model year received a major front-end refresh with a redesigned grille, front fascia, and LED daytime running lights

• The 2017 "Acadia Limited" is the 1st-gen carryover sold alongside the all-new 2nd-gen during the transition year - same hood as 2013-2016 Acadia
• Does not fit 2007-2012 GMC Acadia (pre-facelift 1st-gen) - different grille and front fascia; that generation uses Husky Liners part 2842030

Product Description

The Husky Liners 2842074 Aeroskin Low Profile Hood Protector is engineered to shield the front edge of your 1st-generation GMC Acadia facelift hood from the daily abuse of road debris, rocks, insects, and chips. Built from impact-modified acrylic and finished in a tinted smoke color, this 1-piece shield delivers professional-grade front-end protection while preserving the bold, upscale styling of the refreshed 2013-2016 Acadia three-row SUV and its 2017 Acadia Limited fleet carryover variant. Its aerodynamic, hood-hugging design sits tight against the sheet metal for the lowest profile in the category - adding protection without the bulky look of traditional bug deflectors.

Aeroskin uses laser-fit technology to match the exact contours of the 1st-gen facelift Acadia hood across all trim levels (SLE and SLE-1/SLE-2, SLT and SLT-1/SLT-2, and the premium Denali). Compatible with the Acadia's proven 3.6L HFV6 V6 engine (rated 281-288 hp depending on trim and model year) paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, and both FWD and AWD configurations. Installation requires no drilling, no cutting, and no permanent modifications - just clean the surface, peel, position, and press. The result is a vibration-free, rattle-free shield that stays put through highway speeds, weather extremes, and years of daily driving or family hauling.

This Aeroskin is the right upgrade for 1st-generation facelift Acadia owners (and 2017 Acadia Limited owners) who want to preserve the value and appearance of their three-row family SUV without altering its lines. Critical fitment note: this part does NOT fit the 2017 GMC Acadia (without the "Limited" designation) - that's an all-new 2nd-generation vehicle on GM's C1XX platform that shrank over 7 inches compared to the 1st-gen and has completely different hood and front-end styling. The 2017 Acadia Limited (which this part DOES fit) is the 1st-gen carryover sold alongside the redesigned 2nd-gen during the 2017 transition year. Proudly manufactured in the USA at Husky Liners' Georgia facility and backed by a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects, the 2842074 is a permanent solution for keeping your Acadia's front end looking factory-fresh. For the 2007-2012 pre-facelift 1st-gen Acadia, owners should reference a different Aeroskin part number (2842030).
