The cover is for the most part good, but it does get DANG hot. But it does sit up a bit from the engine, pretty close to the hood, so it does get airflow under it, so I can't really see that it's any hotter than the hood alone. No heat issues so far.

A couple of issues I had was with the mounting, I used the two rear rocker studs to mount it in the back, occasionally it popped off, no damage just a rattle; but I've used a tiny bit of silicone adhesive on each stud which solved that problem. The only other issue was the plastic I used for the edging. Because it comes in a strip, I have to find a better way of getting joining the two ends, as one end came loose and fried on the exhaust manifold, so I took it off for now.
