UPDATE / New Bug Deflector / 1st Generation / $20.00

[David Ponder]

Found this ad on local Craigslist. Ad says they are Ford, and price is very good.



Just posting as FYI. These are not mine and I do not know the seller.

 

[Art Garcia]

if he wont ship

would you be able to buy some and ship to us?



i also have a friend that lives in Saint Louis , he comes up here to TN often

Arturo,



I havent seen these but if they come in a box, I would be glad to help.

I assume they can be shipped just as they are in the box?

That would be great. I have the original Ford bug deflector that is about 6 inches wide but its a bit faded now. id like to replace it and 20 bucks is a heck of a deal. There is also another Ford bug deflector that is about 4 inches wide instead. I contacted the seller but no response. Would really like to get my hands on the one that would replace my current one.

Mine just bit the dust....snapped in the extreme cold we had last week. Went over a speed bump in a parking lot and next thing I knew it was flopping around in the wind lol. $20 is a steal even with the extra cost of shipping it would still be cheaper then getting it anywhere else!

 

[David Ponder]

I just E-mailed him to see how many he has. IF they are the OEM Ford ones, I will buy all that he has for our Sport Tracs. (Up to a point of course) I'll let you all know what he says.



If I get them, I will offer to members for cost plus shipping.

 

[Art Garcia]

thank you dave

Ok, I just talked to the guy. He is closing out a business, and has some bug shields for sale. These are not Ford branded, they are either Lund or Stampeede brand. (He is going to check tomorrow when he is at the shop) They are brand new, but came bulk packaged without boxes. He thinks he may have 2 or 3 for the 01-05 Sport Trac.



If this interests any of you, leave a post here. I will be traveling to Sikeston MO over the weekend of Feb 19th/20th if someone wants to meet me there to pick one up. I also have no issue shipping these for someone if you will pay shipping and cost of the bug shield.



(Would need suggestions on how to wrap/package them. )

Just got his E-mail... They are made by Stampede, and he has 5 of them available for the 01-05 Sport Trac. Let me know.

 

[Chad Merry]

I will take one. I am in St.Louis. I assume these are all smoked/tinted colored, and not the clear units?

 

[Art Garcia]

them being stampede. im not to interested. i was hoping for FORD ones but thank you for the trouble i made you go through.

 

[Mike Yatkowitz]

I'll take one if you can figure out how to ship it safely to NJ. Let me know the total cost 08831

 

[David Ponder]

I am checking with the seller to see if they are clear or smoked. I have no issue buying these for someone but as there is no box, I am unsure on shipping them. I will find out for sure soon.



Chad I will be going thru St Louis on Friday night 2-18-11 and can meet you at Quik Trip in Herculanieum (Off of I-55) or possibly somewhere else if you want. (I take I-70 to 40/61 to 270 to 55) I will E-mail you about this and let you know when I get more info on them.



Update... They are the smoked ones, not clear. I may see if he will sell all 5 of them to me for a better price, which I can pass on to you all. I'll let you know.

 

[David Ponder]

Chad, You have mail. Picked yours up tonight.



He has about 3 more... I am still not sure of a good way to ship these as there is no box, just a plastic wrapper. (Comes with screws and plastic screw guides)



Here are the Pics, Please no comments about my wife holding the shield... She wasnt too happy to be in the pic, but we've been married 25 years and she puts up with me..

Anyone else wanting to pick one up from me in somewhere between Kansas City and Sikeston MO, let me know. I will be driving down there on the night of the 18th.
