Okay Vendors and crafty metal workers. I am hoping someone is working on a Heat shield (engine & DP) to REPLACE the current factory one.
M7 has a nice ADDITION to cover it, but I would like to see one which completely gets rid of the factory garbage. with maybe less connection points. Anyone know of anything available yet....

4 posts below yours: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...d.php?t=139859 I think that thread addresses your question if you are looking to lower temps.

 

No Im hoping to be able to get at the DP easier for removal and what not.
It usually takes me 4-6 hours to remove the stock heat sheilds as I large hands and limited length ratchet wrenches. A lot of these nuts bolts are extremely hard to reach and would be nice to bolt up a after market hard sheild with maybe only 4 bolt points.
