Home Made Heat Shields

Man I love old license plates. It turns out they make great heat shields. I made these two over the last couple weeks just for the hell of it. Ours in South Carolina aren't stamped so they're nice and flat and easy to work with. I've got about an hour in making both of them. I cut them out to shape with some tin snips, sanded down the edges, then sanded the big flat surfaces up to a 1500 grit. I didnt have any clear but at some point I will probably take them off and shoot them. Anyway- just an idea for ya.
