Default Anyone fabbed up a manifold heat shield?

I was getting curious when reading the other day about visual inspections done by cops and DMVs. Has anyone ever tried to fab up a heat shield simply for concealing their manifold and turbo, and maybe the open filter element? You know, similar to the Greddy Kit, but even more concealing.

To fool a cop when they pull you over for a modded exhaust, then use that fact to make you pop your hood. If you can make it look sort of stock, an adequate heat shield would cover up everything that resembles a turbo setup.
