i dont know where to get them but i made my own out of sheet metal, pvc, and metal insulation tape. it makes a little difference around here in hot ole florida. i got a piece of sheet metal, bent it and cut it to shape, used sheet metal screws and weather stripping. painted it all black. it looks pretty good i think.

thats what i was thinking about doing to mine this weekend. im makeing a ram air for it with 4" dryer duct. i figured since i was already doing that i might as well make the heat shield. do you have any pics of it so that i can figure out how i am going to do it? it would be much apreciated.

sorry no pics right now. but i might as well take soem this weekend. im changing oil and cleanignthe engine compartment. i dont have a digital camera so itll take a few days. ive thought about the ram air as well. were you going to run it up behind the grill or below the bumper?

 

[mikeresin]

behind the bumper. right next to the fog light hole.
