Cobra Heat shields

Rick..When u bolt these Heat Shields for "Widebdy", how did they attach to the sidepipes?? Did they attach at any point to the Rocker Panels??? Let me know if u can. Considering strongly purcashing a pair before spring.. Here's Ricks "sweet " ride

Thanks,

Andy

I called a company about those and the price was pretty good, but id really like to see close up how theyd look.

Andy, they don't attach to the rocker panels....... they attach to the pipes, with straps. I had to adapt the straps to get them to fit the full 4 inch pipe --- the cobra pipes have indentations of 3 inches for the straps to fit in, so I fabbed a longer rear strap and had to cut (and shorten) the shield mounts to get the shield closer to the pipe. Couldn't open the door ! Took awhile and had to be rewelded -- large hose clamps might have been easier !!! Rick

Thanks Rick....Sounds doable.

Carl....they do look good, don't they. I thik they were $199.00 if my aging memory servers me correctly!

If my old memory servers me........ I think I paid $245.00 for them ! I wanted chrome covers, but the only ones they had in chrome were shorter and had that 4 clover pattern (which I didn't want !) I got the brushed stainless steel in the slotted pattern -- and actually I think they look great with the coated sidepipes. (since it's really hard to keep them polished brightly, since I drive it all the time !)
I will tell you it makes a big difference with the heat --- haven't burned my leg since the install !!! Rick

You might want to try a company called Spiro Turbo Baffles

If you run header side pipes, then these mufflers are a must!
Major increase in horsepower and torque over other brands.
They used to offer a cover similar to the ones above.
But, if you could ever find a set of these, thats the way to go!
Yes, they are mine, and someday I plan on reproducing them, but when, I cant say.

You sure you don't want to loan those to me Randy;) Just kidding. I wish I could find a set like those though.

Headed to a friends house next Sunday for a super bowl party.. He has a C5, a new Hummer and a COBRA!! I'll chekout first hand the covers....BUT Rick when I first saw your car last year at Carlisle, Besides the nostrils, you can't help but notice the heat shields..They look "THAT GOOD"....

Thanks for the advice Randy..I'll chekout the site as well.......
