Default RS500 heat shield

How much chopping do I have to do to get it to fit my Sapphire 4wd?

Don't really want to chop one up

My mate had a 2wd shiled on his 4x4 and i don't remember there being any hassle with the brake servo? YOu just need to get the 2wd brackets that bolt to the inner wing IIRC.

Mine fitted in without too much work - all i had to do was cut a little off the front edge and at the top but thats due to breather hose

The bit that goes behind the downpipe is removed on mine as the breather pot pipe is around that area

I think this is my only option, really liking it

I've sent an email to mt Motorsport but have had no response, will have to wait and see
