Make em.

I went out and made my own. They kind of look a little cheezy, but it cost me a total of $5 and 1 hour of my time.
Basically, i went to a plastic place, gave them my bumper lens, showed them which plastic i wanted (clear lexan) and they cut it for me. I then sawed off the colored reflector part, painted the inside a reflector silver, painted the lexan with a etched glass spray paint, and vollla, clear bumper lenses. I went a little cheezer though and got some Scotchbrite reflector tape (its silver and super reflective) and placed a strip across the middle to retain some reflective properties.
I think i will have to redo it again though. It looks really good from a few feet away, but when you get really close it looks kinda rice.
Just goes to show it can be done!
