best hood lip bug/rock guard?

ok, i know that most hood rock guards are fugly and make our vics look bad, but i live in colorado. enough said.

i just drove by a black vic minutes ago and saw that exact one i would get except the maker's little white logo was scraped clean (just as i would) and i don't know who made it.

besides all of you people who hate them, does anyone know who makes the best looking rock/bug hood guard?? i am not looking for the 2-3in ones that stick straight up. this perticular one was low to the hood and covers the hood a little more, maybe 5-8in deep.

thanks.

i've checked out the clear bra. it looks ok though. they are a bit more visible on black and white cars as opposed to red,blue,titanium,silver...etc. not interested in the prices though. it can get really expensive.

i think i'll try find that car again, i've seen it around. maybe he/she can tell me about the specific guard brand. i didn't notice that there was a even guard on it at first, i was too busy checking out the projectors. this one looked nice.

2 downsides though, you see the line where it stops on the hood, and if someone bumps it, it scuffs and the scuff doesn't come out.
Goes on like window tint, stuff works pretty well though.
