Default colored bug deflector for xB?

i saw some nice colored bug deflector but they say they are not available for the xB....

like these:

i thought a white one would look good on my Polar xB...

does anyone know where i can find a bugshield for an xB?

or somewhere that makes custom sizes?

thanks!

I have been searching too. You should send in a special request to JC Whitney so they will realize the demand and get after their suppliers to make them.

For other makes they have a brushed nickel or light pewter. I wonder which color would look best with my Thundercloud when they start making one for my xB.

Black would be good....but if brushed nickel or light pewter look close to the xB silver, I think that would be cool.

Bugflector II is the product I am talking about. Hope they will come out with an xB version soon!

let me know if you find a vehicle with similar front end measurements as the xB that there is a bug deflector for...

if i find one, i will post if also...

i was thinking the Ford ranger or something like that may work....

I seem to recall the older style had a metal strip at the bottom and was pretty much a flat vertical piece. It could be bent around to fit the contour. I don't remember how they were fastened and I wouldn't want to screw it on. If it were easily removed it could atleast be a holdover until smething made for the xB comes around.
