Default Exhaust Manifold Heat Shield

So i was looking at my engine today trying to think of how to make it look nicer and it seems that my heatshield is kinda ****ty looking so i would like to take it off, but i only see about 3 screws and thats on top...is that all there is? is it just unscrew and pull it off?..Do you think my headers look worse?

Do you even have headers? If not, all you're going to find is a rusty stock log manifold when you pull the heat shield off. Its ugly, and bad for performance (think about why people ceramic coat exhaust parts- to keep the heat in the exhaust piping and out of the engine bay).
