Heat shield material qn

[Imuya]

hi all,

 

I'm thinking of DIY-ing a heat shield for car. The material i'm looking for is the a bit thick foam rubber type so that the heat shield can form a seal with the bonnet.

 

Any bro here know where can get?

Check through the previous posts but dun have what i'm looking for.

 

And also any idea how to join the edges of the heat shield rubber material together at the edges? Tape? Glue? Cable ties?

 

If successful hope can share some pics with you guys...

you mean the heat shield?

I want to custom a heat shield cos my open pod is directly behind my radiator fan

 

my present set up with a lock&lock box is very stupid looking though it works.
