Two questions:
How much would a splash guard that covers as much as this one does cost?
this one is cheap but does not really look comparable to the one OP modled.
This one seems like a reasonable alternative.
This one looks a lot like the one OP modled, but frankly is more than you would need to spend.
The middle option here is a little over $10 and looks like a pretty reasonable option.
Next question: How much would the filament cost?
I usually pay $20 to $25 per kilo for most filament.
I would also be willing to wager that it's possible to print a decent splash guard with ~250 grams of filament.
If you're worried about sucking it into your front tire, a nice compromise would be a downtube fender. They kind of blend in, and they keep a lot of the spray directly off your engine and you.
Edit:
Just like this one.

Getting some clip-on fenders could help a lot. I put this and this on my cross bike and my feet still get soaked but the face splash and back stripe are gone.
