Bugg Banner Bug shield

Has anyone had any experience with the "Bugg Banner" bug shield that covers the front of the trailer? My biggest problem with our 5th wheel over several years has been cleaning off the bugs that splatter all over the front of the trailer. The clear coat is long since gone due to scrubbing. I have used waxes which don't help much, Recently I saw an ad for the Bugg Banner which is a cover that covers the front cap of the trailer. I wonder if it stays on well while traveling and how hard it is to install. Any other suggestions are also welcome.

    Looks like a bra for a trailer...
    It will probably get splattered with bugs and keep most of them off the cap, but for $300 I'll do a little light clean up like I always do after we get set up and are, "relaxing."

    We camp often in the rain, and if I wait until the next day, most of the bugs are soaked off or are easy to remove without scrubbing.

    I always considered bug removal as just part of the adventure of RVing.

    The buggbanner works great. I have one on my 5th wheel. I was skeptical too but after I put it on I was happy that I did. It doesn't move around while I'm traveling and it keeps the crud from plastering the front end. It's not too hard to put on, just a few screws and stickers. You can watch a video of a 5th wheel going down the highway on their website. It's worth $300 to me, I hate cleaning that front end.
