Bug deflector for 73 F100

Anybody know where I can get a bug deflector for my 73 F100? I want the 70s style deflector (clear plastic). LMC truck offers a deflector for the 73-79 trucks, but unfortunately it's only available in a smoke(tinted) color.

Be glad you can get one from them.
Most original accessories like BD's are long gone obsolete for these trucks.

The were originally made by Deflecto-shield

Used to be, that all the 'farm stores' around here carried the flat bug deflector. Like TSC (Tractor Supply Company) or Fleet... also might ask at parts stores.
