A vehicular component shield providing a base plate with an aperture, wherein a shield surface extends from the base plate and circumscribes the aperture. The shield surface has an upper shield surface extending to a downwardly tapered moisture accumulation surface which in turn communicates to a moisture drip point. The distal surfaces of the remaining portion of the shield surface have a plurality of airfoil deflection surfaces defined by a non-zero or non-linear slope or gradient relative to the y-z plane of the base plate, wherein the plurality of airfoil deflection surfaces slope inward toward the aperture relative to the x-y plane of the base plate.
