I spoke with them (AVS) about 5 months ago and got the "Not planning to at this time" response. This is a step in the right direction and hopefully it will come about soon.
Thanks for posting this update!

Yeah- no problem....This could all be a bunch of double talk- but if they actually told you they had no plans- then maybe they really have changed their minds.
Here's hoping it's released before we sell our trucks (only half kidding).....

HA! I keep my trucks for a long time, never got a lemon.
I just hope I have the option to get one of these before I take that big rock into the middle of the front of the hood while going down the highway.

Has anyone had any issues with the RealTruck AVS® AeroSkin II® Matte Black Bug Shield?
Has it prevented rocks from hitting your windshield?

I've got one that I received from AVS (autovenshade.com) back a couple of months or so after I took delivery of my 2021 Platinum. I have not installed it yet - it's just been sitting in the box in the garage.
Back story: I ordered it when the '21 first came out. AVS said they didn't have any for the new F150 design yet, as they were low on material to produce them (COVID), and didn't know how long it would be before they got the material to make them.
After about a month and a half of AVS telling me no update and asking if I wanted a refund (I declined several times), I finally told them to refund me and I would just order again when it looked like they were finally shipping them. They refunded my money.
About a month later, I get a shipment notification. Long story short, they shipped me one of the first ones they made, free of charge.
I never got around to installing it. HOWEVER ... when I look up the part today, it says it will fit "All 2021 F150 *except* for the Tremor, Platinum, and King Ranch." Not sure why, but I guess I should dig it out and see why it doesn't fit.

I do not know about the 2021 Plat and KR but any Tremor and any Gen 14 F-150 with the BAP, it will not fit as they have different hoods.
Here is the BAP (Tremor) hood and you will see it is "straight" along the lip of the hood and not curved like a regular F-150 hood. The BAP (Tremor) hood has a bigger front section just so it catch more rocks.

It provides leading hood protection. Only had it for 30 days. More info on www.realtruck.com

Thanks for posting this. Been looking at that one myself. Decent amount of little rocks on the road where I am and I'm hoping the extra lip will help deflect more away from the windshield as well.I went with the AEROSKIN® II BN myself. I love it so far.
