Default Heat shields and extractors!

right now my under bonnet temps are pretty disgraceful and im looking at ways of reducing it once the car gets back on the road
i have pacemaker 4480s for anyone wondering, which obviously dont fit under the factory heatshield
i had a chat with shav about his heatshield that he had made up and it looks very impressive

has anyone else done anything similar and ran into any problems? im just weighing up the pros and cons
would i be better off getting the headers heatproof coated?
is it of benefit to get HPC and the heatshield as well?
should i look at things like different thermostats etc?

thanks for any input guys! :
