Does the Zl1 not come with the insulated heat shield on the underside of the hood?

Well, I decided to do a few under hood mods. I wanted more of a stealth, sinister look to go with the black on black theme of the car so I bought an extra engine cover to play around and decided on all black. I also painted the end caps of the strut tower brace with the same paint and swapped the stock STB bolts with black cap bolts (took that from someone else here). Finally I added a ZL1 under hood decal from Phastek.

I know the black theme is played out to some; but this came out real nice imo. On the engine cover I wanted to go for an OE look so I didn't sand it.

Here is a pic with raised letters in different colors so I can see what color I liked best. I may change the letters back to silver, but I will leave them alone for now.

Finished product
