DIY light reflector?

Is there a way to make your own light reflector? I have reptisun 10.0 t5 bulb in a hoodless fixture, but have read that a hood is important. I can't afford a new fixture right now, so I was hoping there's a way I could make my own until I can get a new fixture with a hood.

Putting tin foil behind the bulb but I am not sure how to do that w/ out the hood --- here is a place you can get the hood https://www.pangeareptile.com/store/zoo-med-reptisun-t5-ho-terrarium-hood.html
I dont know what bulb you have but you can look there and they are fast and good shipping is reasonable $7
