Nothing against jc-aimhigher, I may even buy his heat shield, but I thought of making my own useing plexiglass. I have a very large piece of smoked plexi but would it get to hot for it and melt. I have used plexi in a stereo install to cover the battery and fuse holders under the hood and it lasted until I took it out. If it is going to be to much trouble I may just buy one premade, but I thought it would be custom looking to build one out of plexi.
