-7/-9 exhaust heat shield pics?

I'm told that 7/9 finish kits now come with clamp-on heat shields for the bottom of the exhaust pipes to protect the bottom of the cowl. Anyone have any pics of them, as installed? (Not glue-on foil, etc for the cowl itself; an air-gap seal mounted on the pipes.)
edit: If anyone knows of fiberfrax-like material that might be found locally in a small to medium sized city, that would be a plus.

Thanks,

Charlie

I've never had any issues of cowling heat damage/discoloration from the exhaust pipes. Maybe those are to protect the new-design elastomer nose gear?
