Stainless Heat Shields

by BigDaz » Sun Feb 07, 2016 9:01 pm

As i work with nice stainless sheets all day i was thinking of making some stainless heat shields which i could make up for club members with a discount not £60+ some company's are wanting.They would be made from either polished stainless or brushed effect personal preference. These heat shields would be like the one's pictured but without the silly cut out's like vauxhall badge/vxr etc will just be plain.So this post is to see if there would be any interested party's (C20XE OR C20LET ONLY) but could look into ecotec

WILL BE MADE USING LATEST CNC TURRET PUNCH / BRAKE PRESS AND LASER CUTTING MACHINES

No problem. I would be very interested if you were looking in to a shield for the V6 because the standard shield looks pants!

An Ecotec one sounds good, I'd like a bit of bling under the bonnet.
