R56 shield to help with hood scoop warping

It's not uncommon for the R56 hood scoop to warp due to the excessive heat of the turbocharger at it's placement being directly under it. A helpful modification to protect it from this heat is to add the hood scoop heat shield. We added a note about the heat shield in our tech article here.

I wanted to add additional info and a photo of the install. Below is what it looks like once installed. It comes with all components needed to install it. This should help with the heat and prolong the life of your scoop so that you don't have to replace it again.

Click here to purchase it. Let me know if you have any questions.
