Things and gadgets that fill a purpose on the car aint gay. If you paint the heat shield golden im willing to change my mind.

Can someone explain to me, how a METAL heatshield, a material that conducts heat very well, can stop a plastic bumper its joined to from melting?
Same as alloy turbo heatshields.
All show, fuck all real use.

Yeah i thought they reflect more of the heat away
Also some alloy heatshelids (under the bonnet) Have proper heat stuff stuck to the inside of them to give extra protection
Put one on mine cause think they look a lot better than big melted hole
Says he whos car has got no jacking point covers on it

It's just that i'm not a great lover of the heat shields pop riveted to the bumper, thats all.
Although if my bumper carries on melting like it is i will have to get one too

Andreas - should a heat sheild not go around the pipe on the bumper as well as surely that is where contact and maximum heat would radiate from?
The only place mine melted was where the actual pipe touched the bumper going through the bumper.
Cool, right i think im going to fit it then.
But erm do i trust myself to do it now before Ford Fair, or wait for someone else to do it?
If i do it, I will fit it wrong somehow!
