hello,it was made in australia and the brand is EGR

The EGR one is supposed to be a better fit, and have seen people moaning about the fitment of the Scout brand, search this post on Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/groups/3344512178997614/search/?q=guard

Some (all)? makes do sit proud, ones for a 120 trap leaves etc in the gap. Not good.

hello and thanks for your comments,i have fitted the bonnet protector and it looks ok ,there is a decent clearance but i assume that is the design,regards mick

Agree Mick - if it was a tight or close fit it may rub paintwork with any flex/vibration, but the idea must be to deflect bugs/*beep* up and over the bonnet windshield, not under it or both. Good luck with it anyway.  Regards, John
