Bonnet Protectors

Bonnet protectors to shield your car's hood from stone chips, insects and road debris. Available as standalone protectors or bundled with weathershields, our range covers over 40 makes and models across utes, SUVs, sedans and wagons. Browse below to find the right fit for your vehicle.

What a Bonnet Protector Does

The front edge of your bonnet is one of the first things to show wear on any vehicle. Every time you drive at speed, small stones, gravel, insects and road debris hit the leading edge of the hood directly. On highway runs, the impact is constant. On unsealed roads, it gets worse. Over time, those hits chip through the clear coat and paint, leaving scratches and exposed spots that attract moisture and eventually lead to rust.

A bonnet protector sits along the front edge of the hood, creating an angled shield that deflects airflow and debris upward and over the windscreen. Instead of stones hitting the paint at speed, they glance off the protector and carry over the roof. The result is a bonnet that stays cleaner, takes less damage and holds its appearance for much longer than an unprotected one. The upward deflection also helps redirect insects and fine debris away from the windscreen and headlights, keeping your front end in better shape overall.

It is a particularly worthwhile upgrade for anyone who regularly drives regional highways, follows trucks on country roads, or commutes on routes where road works and loose gravel are common. Tradies who cover big distances between job sites will notice the difference quickly, and so will touring drivers who rack up kilometres on outback trips across Australia. Even for city drivers, a bonnet protector catches the everyday bug and grime buildup that slowly eats into your paint over the years.

Standalone Protectors vs Combo Packs

When shopping for a bonnet protector, you will notice two main options across our range: standalone bonnet protectors and combo packs that bundle a bonnet protector with a set of weathershields.

Standalone bonnet protectors are the way to go if you already have weathershields fitted or if you only want the bonnet covered. We carry standalone options for most vehicles in the range, and they come in a variety of finishes depending on the model.

Combo packs pair a bonnet protector with weathershields for all four doors (or two, depending on the cab configuration). These are a popular choice because you get both accessories sorted in one purchase, often at a better price than buying them separately. If you are starting fresh and want to protect the bonnet and keep rain out of the cabin when the windows are cracked open, a combo pack is the most practical route.

In terms of finishes, the range includes several options depending on your car:

Tinted and black tinted protectors are the most common. They offer a subtle, semi-transparent look that blends in with most vehicle colours without standing out too much. These are the go-to for owners who want protection without changing the appearance of the car dramatically.

Stone chip guard styles sit a little closer to the bonnet surface and are designed specifically to absorb the impact of stones and gravel. These are a good pick for vehicles that spend a lot of time on rough roads where heavier debris is a constant issue.

Clear protectors are available for select models like the LandCruiser 79 Series and let the factory paint colour show through completely. Matte black options provide a bolder, more stylish look that ties in well if you are already running matte black accessories like fender flares or body cladding on the vehicle.

We also carry TRACHO branded bonnet protectors for select models, including the Mitsubishi ASX, built from premium acrylic for a clean finish and long-lasting clarity.

Vehicles We Cover

This is one of the largest bonnet protector collections available from a single Australian store. The range covers everything from popular work utes to family SUVs, classic Aussie sedans and dedicated off road wagons.

Utes make up a big chunk of the range. We stock bonnet protectors and combo packs for the Ford Ranger across every generation from 2007 through to the current Next Gen, the Ford Everest (2015 onwards), the Toyota Hilux from 1983 right through to the 2025 model including Space Cab and Extra Cab variants, the Isuzu D-MAX across all generations from 2012 to 2026 in both standard and thick profile options, the Mitsubishi Triton from ML/MN through MQ, MR and the latest 2023 facelift, the Nissan Navara across D22, D40 and NP300, the Mazda BT-50 from 2007 to current, the Holden Colorado from 2008 onwards, the Volkswagen Amarok for both generations, the Mercedes-Benz X-Class, GWM Cannon, LDV T60, SsangYong Musso, BYD Shark 6, RAM 1500 and Chevrolet Silverado.

SUVs and wagons are well covered too. The Toyota LandCruiser lineup includes the 76, 78 and 79 Series, 80 Series, 100 Series, 200 Series, 300 Series and multiple generations of the Prado from 1996 through to 2026. The Toyota Fortuner, Kluger, RAV4, Hiace, FJ Cruiser and Camry are all in the range as well.

For sedan and wagon owners, the Holden Commodore is covered across VY, VZ, VE and VF in sedan, wagon and ute body styles. The Ford Falcon and Fairmont BA, BF and FG are also in the range, along with the Ford Territory.

With that many options, it is worth using the filters on this page to narrow things down by your vehicle make and model.

Choosing and Ordering

Start by confirming your vehicle make, model, year and cab type. Some models like the Hilux, D-MAX, Ranger, Navara and Colorado have separate options for dual cab and extra cab configurations, so getting this right matters for a proper fit.

From there, decide whether you want a standalone bonnet protector or a combo pack with weathershields. If you already have weathershields fitted, a standalone protector is all you need. If not, the combo pack saves you a second purchase and gets both accessories on your car in one go.

Check the finish options for your model. Most vehicles have at least tinted and black tinted available, and some have stone chip guard, clear or matte black as well. Pick the one that best matches the look you are going for.
