even with my sunglasses on, i still need to use my hand to block the reflection off im thinking to add a clear shield on top of the hood scoop to deflect some of the reflection off.

yeah it depends on where the sun is at the time my wife has gotten that a few times in while i drive. . . i don't know what it is but it's like set up to nail the driver right in the face no matter who you are .

Mine doesn't bother me much! The f'n crack in my winshield reflects in my eyes a lot worse! Really sucks when I get it from both!

Yep, that's why when I had the truck repainted I had them slap on a few coats of Trim black to block all that. My only regret is that I didn't do it sooner
