Default Switching to ARC Heatshield

Just bought the ARC Heatshield, but this one seems to be custom made because it has the burn marks to give it a different look.

OEM Heat shield


Arc Heat shield




Couple of other things i just purchased were the AirWalker Sideskirts, and Rays Engineering Lug nuts








Next couple things i am lookin to get are: the ARC Radiator Cover, ARC intake and ARC Strut Bar....also the Top Secret Hood
