Product Description

The Husky Liners 2842056 Aeroskin Low Profile Hood Protector is engineered to shield the front edge of your 2016-2019 Chevrolet Cruze 2nd-generation 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 sportier, more muscular styling of the all-new D2XX-platform Cruze. 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 2016-2019 Cruze 2nd-generation hood across all trim levels (L, LS, LT, Premier, with or without the RS appearance package) and both Sedan (2016-2019) and Hatchback (2017-2019) body styles. Compatible with both powertrains - Chevy's 1.4L Ecotec Turbo I4 (153 hp, available with 6-speed manual or automatic) and the 1.6L Turbo Diesel I4 introduced for 2017 (137 hp, paired with a 9-speed automatic). 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 commuting.

This Aeroskin is the right upgrade for 2nd-generation Cruze owners who want to preserve the value and appearance of their compact sedan or hatchback without altering its sleek lines. Important: this part does NOT fit the 2016 Chevrolet Cruze Limited - which is the 1st-generation carryover model sold alongside the all-new 2nd-gen during the 2016 transition year. Owners can identify which generation they have by checking the 4th digit of their VIN: "B" indicates the 2nd-generation (fits this part), while "P" indicates the 1st-gen Limited carryover (requires a different Aeroskin). The 2011-2015 1st-generation Cruze is also not compatible. Proudly manufactured in the USA at Husky Liners' Georgia facility and backed by a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects, the 2842056 is a permanent solution for keeping your Cruze's front end looking factory-fresh.
