ABSTRACT:
A protective cover for the frame surrounding the front windshield of a motor vehicle which prevents the paint and metal of the auto body frame from being damaged by airborne debris. The protective cover is a single unit molded from a semi-rigid material and designed to conform to the natural shape of the frame surrounding the front windshield. The protective cover contains an area of no material at its center whereby a driver's vision is totally unobstructed while driving. Two main attachment mechanisms are located respectively on the right and left vertical portions of the protective cover. The attachment mechanisms are continuous extensions of the same semi-rigid material comprising the overall structure of the protective cover. The outer edges of the attachment mechanisms hook around the backside of the vertical frame post of the motor vehicle and create a sufficient pulling force as to secure the protective cover to the vehicle. A Hook and loop type fastening device is applied to the inside of the upper portion of the protective cover so as to securely adhere the upper portion to the motor vehicle. The protective cover is primarily designed for Jeep type open top vehicles, but is not limited to this use and is applicable to all other motor vehicles.
