Bug Deflector + Other Bits and Bobs Light Mods

Picked up my first Aerostar last week and im loving it, bought it from a cool interesting guy so its got some sweet tint and cool curtains, and other little add ons like a battery + inverter. Looking to start customizing it to my liking and i love the look of a bug deflector, ive seen a few other forum members with them on their vans and thought id ask where i could get one or if anyone has one for sale!? Also looking for a tow hitch, anyone get one installed by Uhaul? Do they still do that? Let me know guys thanks!

i washed the deflector twice today.its the smoked clear type.its got one scratch.its still cloudy.plastic polish might save it.it came on my parts van.i thought about putting it on my van but realized id have to remove it once a month to clean behind it.i'll look at it more tomorrow.its pretty long so shipping from nc would be expensive.

One scratch is not too bad, my van has a couple scratches of her own. Im definitely interested, let me know what your price is, send me a message if you can, maybe a photo too. I dont mind paying shipping to San Diego if its not too bad i cant imagine the thing weighs too much its just long.
