I have a 1981 f150 single cab long bed and there’s a few things I want to do exterior wise. First is one of those old red tinted bug deflectors that you would normally see on a 70’s ford pickup but I don’t know if that type of application would work or where to find any. Next I’m thinking of doing one of those “fins” That you put on that starts at the top of the cab and slopes down to the bed once again I do not know where to find them so if someone’s got that info please share. Last but not least I see some bullnoses that have a horizontal tube style grille and been doing research and found nothing so if anyone could help me out that would be awesome.
Can't remember if the bug deflector is made aftermarket, but you can get them on ebay, just throw 80-86 ford in your search terms. Couldn't find anything on the fin, not even sure what to call it. Didn't look for the grill.

A few years ago I was looking for a Deflecta-Shield like the one pictured on the '76 above, Not many around since the early 80's
as the designs changed, I found a NOS one listed on E-Bay for a '80 mine was an '84 but the seller contacted me that it
was damaged in the center.
If I remember correctly Deflecta-Shield was located in Iowa.
