right guys and girls ive just picked up my custom built heatshield wanted something more than a standerd heatshield. so i askd my mate to see if he can knock me up one simular to number1`s heatshield.
by the way the renault badge will be added next weekend as im going to devon this weekend.

hes prepared to make a bulk of these if i have the right number for intrest min of 8 and they will be £50 posted these are made of stainless steel with a mirror finish on the manifold side.
first heres the pics:

my mate is making a bulk out of the s/s thats it realy mate hes got one out of s/s on his golf(with audi tt turbo lump in it) custom made for his car and it does wonders for his engine as the hotter the manifold the quicker the gases get out of your exhaust as he says lol so there you go.

sorry dude

Two inch to the top - had anyone got one to hand to measure?

I'll pop mine off tomorrow if I have time and measure it unless anyone has one already out.

05-07-2008, 22:18
Mine is currently off so can save you a job removing yours Daz. What do you need, the total measurement from bottom to top of the standard shield?

Daz.
06-07-2008, 00:20
Aye just a rough measure of the total height - and maybe where it screws to the bulkhead so it sits at the right height :D

stevie_b
08-07-2008, 22:38
Total height is 385mm. That's if it was one piece, since there are various bits chopped out of it so it doesn't actually measure that from top to bottom at any point! Can measure where the screw holes are once I check under the bonnet to remember which way up it fits :lol:

right peeps my mate needs figures by 2mora as it says in the first post need a min of 8 peeps.

payments are still to be confirmed i dont think he has paypal so i think it will be going through me, the heatshields will most likly be made before next weekend and then sent out as long as payments have been recieved.

update!!!!!

spoke to my mate yesterday
he said he will get them all made by pod meet in october he said hes sorry about the wait, hes down on staff in his workshop and got his missis hairdressers to finish off so hes totaly worked off his feet.

now all payments have to go through me as he said, his works exactly "cant be arsed with pc`s" so i said ill deal with the money as long as he gets them made befor pod in october.
now for thoes who wanted one and are going to pod please put it next to your names if your not going im gonna need your postal address so as soon as ive got your payments and there made ill send them too you.

so to those who wants one please send £50 for the posted ones or £45 not posted to ant_corsa@hotmail.co.uk on paypal.

btw the heatshields will be made 2inchs taller unless other requests are made then we will adjust them but i will need to know asap.
thanks for understanding girls and guys.

but sadly I can't afford one - looking like track rods, rear discs and bearings, and a brake fluid flush for me, on top of insurance and tax... :cry:
