Looks like jewelry. 
@SoulPerformance is a Carpokes member now. I've pinged them to see if they have any interest in doing something for the 951, preferably (for me) a cat back system with sporty but not obnoxious muffler. If others had interest, please speak up!

I would love to see some aftermarket heatshield options for our cars. Once you start going big mods, it would be nice to be able to control engine bay heat a little better.

What did you have in mind? I was never a fan of the basic header wrap stuff -- seems like a fire risk if it gets soaked with oil or fuel....? The GoodFabs stuff looks pretty exotic. They use .1mm thick SS or inconel dimpled foil welded (!) over fancy insulating material. .1mm is about the thickness of good printer paper!

A decade or two ago, there were a group of guys making metal shelf-like shields that sat over the headers and under the fuel hoses. I've been thinking of doing something akin to that in an effort to keep my fuel cooler and my fuel pump quieter...

@Tom
What I would be most interested in is more shielding under and around the intake. I know there are turbo blankets and the like but I always hated insulation wraps due to oil leakage (like you previously stated).
