Default Side pipe question

I have zero experience with C2 side pipes.

The covers have an 'insulator' on the inside right? What is it made of and how is it attached to the aluminum cover itself?

Glued?

If glued, what kind of glue do you use to re attach them. Thanks

Have you ever tried using the search option here? You know it's not worth a crap. Sorry if it's been asked and answered,[every question on the board has been asked and answered] but trying to use the search feature isn't good enough to be hit or miss. I searched and couldn't find.

Yes I have and I agree it’s hit or miss. But the one thread on this subject is still on page one.
