re heat shield

[bmwlarry]

I held the heat shield in place and am not too thrilled with the gloss black. Has anyone tried painting to flat black? I was thinking of using a flat black vinyl sticker material to cover it. If I understand it correctly, when installing this shield, you need to remove the lower panel permanently and reinstall the bolts. Correct?

What heat shield are you referring to? If it's the SpyderPops catalytic shields that mount under the foot peg support brackets then nothing gets removed. If it's the LaBlock then you should remove the two covers under the engine and replace the two bolts. I have both and they look good on our pearl white Spyder.

Two covers?? I thought the one on the right is all that need removing?

Thanks

I removed both sides. Makes it much easier do oil changes and the engine runs cooler.
