Heat shield for fuel lines

Any one know where I can get a heat shield for the fuel lines? I'm looking for the sheet metal kind. I seen arc has one but there a little pricey.

where are you trying to shield the lines? along the frame / side of battery enclosure or where they cut over at the fuel damper?

Right where they come out from the bottom of the car and enter the engine bay. I'm going to wrap them but, I also want to shield them cause there gonna be really close to the turbo.

Wrapping them with a quality wrap will be just fine as that is what i did and no problem for over 3 years.

Ok.... The guy who is doing the timing on the motor said he has the wrap he uses and it's good up to 1200 radient heat. do you guys think this is good? This is somthing I don't want to play with.
