Hand made heatsheild for my 1.2 :)

[A18XHO]

Decided to make this becuase after short trips like going work or picking my little brothers up from school noticed my airfilter a tiny bit warm (still loads cooler then most airfilters i have toched after a trip) so was thinking i could be loosing power from this or might just be heating up from when ive stopped? but i built this little heat sheild which does look really s**t and pikey becuase i made it with my bare hands lol and only experiance ive had with making things in metal is like 2 d&t lessons at school about 3 years ago and watching orange country choppers lol.... But atleast it does the job!!! i thought it would heat up too as the heat from the engine would transfer to it, but surpsingly it works really really well and when i get home to check on it its still cold like before the journey heres a few picks lol

lol as you now see its proper pikey looking and hopefully making a proper looking version very soon
