Description

PROTECT YOUR ENGINE BAY FROM EXHAUST MANIFOLD HEAT.

The Unlimited Works Original Head Cover Heat Shield is designed to protect the cylinder head cover and surrounding components from the intense heat radiated by the exhaust manifold.

Featuring a black anodized aluminum plate with application-specific configurations, this shield combines functional heat protection with underhood styling enhancement.
