Does any one recognize this heat shield (attached) as coming from a Monte, specifically of the 2005 variety?

I pulled out of my driveway yesterday, stood on it to avoid getting hit, did that little fish tale type of thing that is oh so fun in a Supercharged Monte, then a few hundred feet down the road, I heard this heat shield up under the car. Judging by the amount of contact points that were rusted out and that I heard no rattling prior, I don't think it's from me. I think I must have run it over, and didn't' see it coming b/c I was checking my mirror to make sure i didn't get rear ended. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone could identify this as being from a Monte Carlo. I'm going to check GMPartsDirect.com too and look for a diagram, but I though since everyone here is so knowledgeable, I'd throw it out there.

Thanks!

 

 

the heat shield on my 02 monte ss .fell off .when pulling out of the driveway.both holes were completly rusted away.and the car is welll maintained and garaged.so i talked to my mechanic about the heat shield.he told me dont even bother puting it back on.

 

Space: I haven't been able to look under it yet. I don't have access to a jack or anything where I'm at so it's tough to get under there.

dominic: did the heat shield look close to this one? I've had other heat shields come off of other cars, and have never worried about putting them back on. I figure there's got to be a heat shield somewhere that is important, so that's why i at least want to figure out if this was from my car, or not.

Thanks guys!

 

do you not have a trunk? there's a jack in the spare tire well

 

same exact heat shield as shown .still have it.the one that fell off. stops heat from transfering to your floor boards.the mechanic told me not to worry about this pitcular heat shield. so i never put it back on.most likely it would start to rattle anway.but it is the same exact shield as you posted.

I do not have a supercharged MC, but the only heat shields of this nature on mine are located on the exhaust manifolds. Probably at or near the crossover that connects the two sides. That would be the first place I would look.

 

HAHAHAHA! Good point!

 

put that on asap! Just melted my tank because of it

 

Thanks for the help however, the car in question has probably long since rotted away in a scrap yard.
