R50 induction heat shield

Hi Guy's,
Can anybody offer any advice or have pictures
etc on making a heat shield for an induction kit?
I'm getting the K&N Typhoon and want to minimise 'heat soak'
to ensure as much COLD air gets into the engine as possible.
I'm up for making one but i'm not really sure where to start!

dude i just brought this kit and i fitted an standard piece of black 112.5 Offset Bend down pipe. I know it sounds strange but its the perfect angle to come of the orignal mini cold air feed.

U can buy universal heat sheilds but im not sure how they will fit with K&N to be honest. If PM me your email i will send u a few pics of my cold air pipe.
