I was able to purchase one of these windscreens locally (vancouver, canada). Appears to be identical to the one on SO9 but the fellow who was selling them had figured out how to allow mounting without the drilling anything. The thing is made of aluminum tubing with black abs connections. It is hinged so that it will fold flat when not in use and store easily in the trunk. It's actually quite a refined piece of kit.
My feeling is that you might be able to put together something out of off-the-shelf parts but it would likely look crude, not work as well . . . and still cost you at least $200 in materials.
When i bought mine (about a year ago) the fellow who sold it to me was just starting his company up and i got what i imagine was a promotional unit for $200. I see that now they sell for over $300. Check out the website and (if nothing else) you can get a much better idea of how the deflectors are constructed should you attempt to build your own.
