i want to buy some of that aluminium looking metal that often has a pattern of some type on it, people often use it on sheilding heat around exhuast manifold area.

it looks quite flexible but i havnt seen in the flesh or well, metal or touched it to know what it actually is.

anyone know what it is and where to buy it?

its real flexible, anywhere that sells acl gaskets will be able to get it for you but its not cheap.

most late model vehicles (2000 onwards) have it between the cat or muffler and the floor. so could be worth a trip to pick a part

haha yeah, they're real strict on the discounts. Even though the stuff would never dip below cost...

HR140-GTR is 700x290
HR143-GTTR is 700x580

retail being 66.74 and 79.42 for them excluding gst, but who pays retail?
