I did a quick search for you, I typed in exhaust sheilding and found this site:

http://www.zippertubing.com/Thermal-...Degrees-C.aspx

They have quite a few different things you could try. I thought get some alum. sheeting (something you can bend in a vice, and get some of the thermal blanket stuff they sell. That should do the trick I would think.

I have a CAI that was in my jeep when I bought it, sheilding was missing. The leader of the jeep club I'm in happened to have one and sold it to me. I've done some searching but haven't found anyone that sells the sheilding by it's self.
