Anyone ever sanded their heatshield TURBO writing off?????
OK this may be a weird question but could the TURBO writing be sanded off the standard heatshield and still leave a lovely smooth surface?
Or as I suspect is the construction of the shield too textured (seems to be made out of asbestos/glassfibre) and would this therefore make it impossible?
Cheers

The letters are moulded on top of the fibreglass, thus having a flat surface underneath. So if you sanded them flat id say it would leave a smooth finish but reckon you have to get it paited after as the sanded part would look completly different to the rest of the heatsheild.
personally i prefer it with the turbo lettering.
Most carbon fibre turbo covers come with a flat surface (no lettering, or lines).

As some will have seen mine is colour coded mallard, but even though the shield is mega heat proofed with about £50 worth of heat proof panels and tape it still bubbles a tiny bit around the writing, no where else
so I thought if I sanded it down I would be OK-just worried that it will be all strandy underneath like fibreglass if you know what I mean obviously it couldn't be fillered so needs to be nice and smooth.
