Default Heat shield for side pipes

I have chrome side pipes on my 77 .I was wondering if they have a chrome shield you can install so the wife stops burning her nice legs when she gets out .

He has the chrome ones in the usual 27" length or he can get them in 36". Just tell him what sidepipe diameter you have so you get the right mounts (4" for Hooker pipes). I have his 27" ceramic coated ones and they match my coated pipes perfectly.

These are stainless, from Jim at Spiral Turbo Specialties. I don't believe he is manufacturing them any more, but if there is enough interest you never know.
