caperinmuskoka Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Well didn't need to buy a smoked hood deflector and paint it. Shop in my small town found one made by Stampede and installed it today. Already had people taking pictures of it before it left the shop. Funny thing is.....I sent Stampede a e-mail asking them about the part number for the Journey with the (-8) added to the end for the CHROME selection , and customer support replied back and told me Chrome was not avaliable for the Dodge Journey. Well there wrong, unless this one was special order, Because it was not cheap. Anyway here the part number 2260-8 sticker under deflector states 2009-2011 Journey, But my is a 2012 ...So the hoods never did change from 09-12. Here two pics for you all. any question just ask.....Thanks.....Wife's loves it. Only one I ever seen.........Caper......

caperinmuskoka Posted May 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) Forgot to tell you no drilling hole.......4 spots under the hood that have double sided Foam tape.........And lots of room to wash between hood and deflector, and to clean out leaves and tree needles if needed..........Caper...

rolly Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Wow- that looks sharp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramfrank Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 If it is adhesive only then it will eventually break free - you might want to look onto ways to make the installation more permanent. How much did it cost? It is very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much did it cost? It is very nice. Cost was not cheap $160.00 plus tax Canadian Installed and special order ......But covers full replacement if damaged or cracks and mounting........Smoked one was only around $80.00 he said.

doubleO7 Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) That really looks sharp!!!!!!!. The only other vehicle that I have seen with a chrome deflector, has been a Chevy Tahoe. I did a search on the internet and found the Stampede website. Can't say I'm impressed with the website. 2012 not listed, and only the smoke hood deflector shown for Journey. So I'm wondering if the shop you deal with got a special order. I would be interesting if you could see the original invoice and it may indicate if it was special order. Wow, if you have the only Dodge Journey with a chrome deflector, thats awsome. I must admit I would love to get one for my Journey when it arrives. But alas, it will probably be a smokey one. I may be emailing Stampede and inquire myself as to the availability of the chrome deflector Edited May 31, 2012 by doubleO7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caperinmuskoka Posted May 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) I did E-mail Stampede just after I got the Journey and got a reply back stating the Chrome is not available for the Journey. I even have the 2011/2012 Canadian tire Special order Catalogue (Keystone as they call it) and the Journey is in there for 2009-2011 but not with the last digit of (8) for Chrome selection. I would be intrested to see other e-mail stampede and as for this part number to see if it is now sold. Part # 2260-8 Caper...........

onecrazyfoo4u Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Wow, that does look really good. Would be nice if they had an actual part number so we could all order it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleO7 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Caper I have e-mailed Stampede today aksing why the website doesn't show the deflector as being available in chrome. I have quoted the part number and indicated that it was from an existing hood deflector that has been installed on a 2012 Journey, with photographs that prove its available. I will interested to see what their response is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleO7 Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Caper Here is Stampedes answer to my email Hello: Sometimes items have been added to a product line or are available through special order. Give us a call, place the order and we'll do our very best to convince the factory to send you one. Let me see, I want to order the more exoensive hood delflector, which probably has a higher profit margin also, and they have to be convinced?

caperinmuskoka Posted June 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 So did you place a order? Sounds like to me it is a perk for the dealers/installers to make a special order......Not for the everyday do-it-your-selve guy... ....Caper.....

doubleO7 Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Caper I ended up getting a smoked hood deflector. I wanted to get the deflector right away, and with the Storm grey colour, after much thought, decided the smoke colour went best with this paint choice.

I got both the hood and sunroof air delectors in a smoked colour, I do like the chrome ones but at the time could not find them.

I wanted to get the deflector right away, and with the Storm grey colour, after much thought, decided the smoke colour went best with this paint choice. Ditto here.... It (the chrome looks really good with the chrome surround on the grill, but, having an R/T, mine is body colored (Storm Gray) and the chrome deflector would be the only bit of bling on the front; felt it would look odd. I wish the smoked deflector came in two shades of "smoke" like the window deflectors do...the light gray smoke almost blends in perfectly with the color of the car, but, the light smoke, apparently, is only available on the window visors. That chrome, though, does look sharp on the front end of your Journey!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albino Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 I looked for chrome deflector here in europa, but I don't find some. Is Stampede shop send to europa this item ? ( or another shop or website ? .... ) tks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockey_puck Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I know this is an old thread. But just found this today on the Autoanything site. Attention Canucks. They have issues with shipping to Canada. They told me this after my floor mats I ordered from them were delivered. http://www.autoanything.com/deflectors/61A6459A0A0.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
