2008 Pontiac G6 GT Convertible requires Heat Shield Modification

Mainly about the installation, at the time of writing this I haven't driven the car enough to comment on the installation. I have a 2008 Pontiac G6 GT Convertible with a 3.5 liter V6 engine. On the passenger side, the engine has a vibration damper to prevent the installation of a heat shield under the hood. The manual mentions using a spacer on one of the mounts, but it doesn't work. With this heat shield you just won't be able to close the hood. So I cut off part of the heat shield to fit it. This is a small part and should not affect performance. I have uploaded a picture of the engine with the air intake removed and the engine mount clearly visible from the passenger side. Also, and it doesn't matter, the engine shown in the manual is slightly different, which can be confusing at times. I'll post performance updates later.

Pros
  • ENHANCED ENGINE SOUND: Hear the power under the hood.
Cons
