Default 10th Anniversary Hood - What bug shields will fit it?

I just bought a Hard Rock Edition JK with the 10th Anniversary Hood. I run the Bushwacker hood and tailgate protector on my other JK. However I took a measurement and it looks as though it will not fit on the anniversary hood because of the bulge. Would like to see what others are using for a bug shield.......

I run standard protector on our hood. No problems.

Go to a tint shop and have the bud shield applied on the hood. It is clear and hardly noticeable.
