Default 2wd heat shield on a 4x4

I have a 4x4 saff running a t34 on a 4x4 manifold, I'm not keen on the standard 4x4 turbo heat shield, quite like the escort one done in carbon but dont want to spend the money, will a 2wd heat shield fit my car and turbo/manifold combination?

not sure how a 2wd one fits, but what about a standard Escos one? Look much nicer than 2wd IMO

Fitted one on mine, ages ago. Cant remember having any real difficulty fitting it, just fitted to the original bracket iirc.
Shite picture, but you get the idea:

I like the escos one especially in carbon, thing is I have had the compressor housing polished and you cant see much of it under the escos shield, also have lambda and egt in the downpipe and I think there may be clearance issues on an escos shield
