tan or brown stone / bug guard for hood?

So I'm looking at bug shields and vent visors today, trying to find some brown ones to match my factory tint. Funny thing is, 99% of the guards I see on the market are smoke-color. The rest are red, chrome, carbon fiber, camo, or color-changing. Anyone know if a brown or tan bug shield (or vent visor) is available? I've searched Ebay, Yotatech, Lund, and other websites. Where can I get one to fit a 95 4Runner?

A lot of the bug shields I've seen that were color matched, started their life out as clear. You have it painted on the INSIDE to match your runner.
Good luck!

And the brownish bug shields and window deflectors started out smoked and aged in the sun...

Great tip! I hadn't yet seen any clear shields or vents. I'll look for them - I can paint them myself. If it works out, maybe I'll take some pix and post them.

Thanks!
