Abstract
A shield for protecting the windshield and paint finish of the hood of an automobile from impact by insects and debris. The shield has an airfoil to deflect air current carrying debris and insects away from the windshield. The shield also covers the most vulnerable surface of the hood. To facilitate easy installation, the shield may be shaped like a pocket which snugly fits over the front edge of the hood panel.
