Default no reply from cobrastuff on heat shields, where else?

Cobrastuff.com was recommended as an excellent source for heat shields on a thread a few weeks ago. Have tried to reach them but have not recieved a reply to numerous emails (they don't post a phone number.) Has anyone else tried them? Is there a similar resource for their style and price. Their product looks great and the price seems reasonable.

Great! Glade to hear it! Now, how the heck did you get a reply from them? Five emails over a week's time has produced zilch. I'm about four weeks out on finishing my project and do not want to celebrate with roast veal (my calves) on the sidepipes.

I contacted them though E-mail at the web site. The guy emailed me right back and paid though paypal. Totally painless and got them in a couple days. Maybe he's on vacation or something. Keep trying they are worth it!

They sure sell a lot of those cheese graders. I never liked the looks of them that is why I made my own. See pictures in the C3 General
