Incandescent Bulb Reflector Source?

Anyone happen to know of a source for an 8 inch (or so) reflector that can be used with incandescent bulbs? This is the same type of reflector that's commonly found on clamp-on shop lights. I need about six of them.

I can buy the clamp-on units and simply remove the reflectors, but this is a waste as I don't need the cord or socket from these lights, just the reflectors. Besides, in my area, an 8 inch clamp-on goes for about $6.00, so I'd end up spending $36.00 when I only need what's probably the least expensive part of the light.

Thanks...

Our local farm / home supply store always carries them in the "Poultry Equipment Dept." The price is around 2.00 for the aluminum reflector with bulb guard.
Otherwise, Richard has the best low-cost idea with the pie tins. We use big flower pot saucers with cheap aluminum pizza pan liners for our barn lights with fluorescent bulbs. Works great!

For years I've used aluminum pie plates with a hole in the middle for the bulb to go thru & screw it in the socket. You won't find a better reflector or cheaper. You used to be able to buy them already made up. They were used in big brooder sheds.
