Good to see the old black beast Winston,it was what convinced me about fitting an F7R after reading your thread way back when.

Daz,like MAXIBOY has said BBPT do the heatshields,theyre under 'turbo conversion' section :wink:

Can go from this:

To something like this, very easily and with little ££ spent on it
(valver engine as well, but you get the idea :) )
