Abstract
A vehicle shield device is provided for mounting on a front of a vehicle. The vehicle shield device has a hood protector portion and a fender protector portion for protecting portions of the hood and the fender from contact with airflow. The vehicle shield further includes an airflow deflector portion extending from a back edge of the hood protector portion for deflecting airflow away from a windshield of the vehicle. The hood protector portion, the fender protector portions, and the airflow deflector portion cooperate to form a continuous airflow engaging surface extending across a portion of the front of a vehicle.
