Underbonnet heat shielding

[Sib]

I've seen a few cars where they remove the hairy underbonnet mat and replace with silver heat shielding.

a. Is this a good idea

b. how do you do it

c. about how much does it cost

Think its either mine or freds your talking about there, its practical because it protects the brake lines and stops em boiling. (or thats how I justify the cost hahah).
Mine took 6 hours to fit! but wasn't charged man time for that due to spending a few grand at yozza at the time. Cost of the shielding was £50 ish
Advantages of having it... cosmetic only imo
