They don't make skidplates for JDM DC headers.

On top of that, a skid plate or heat shield wouldn't do much. Yeah, it would protect the header for a couple hits, but would eventually be scratched through. And you're back to scratching the pipes again.

I run a skidplate on my JDM 4-1, believe me, there is no way it will ever "scratch through", it's a really really thick piece of metal, I have scraped, bottomed out my header and the skid plate is still as thick as when it was new.
