Intake Tube Heat Shielding

I was wondering how may people with the Stillen Gen 3 intake have heat shielding such as the thermo tec sleeves installed. I went for a 30 min. drive yesterday

Default Intake Tube Heat Shielding

I was wondering how may people with the Stillen Gen 3 intake have heat shielding such as the thermo tec sleeves installed.

I went for a 30 min. drive yesterday and came home and parked the Z. About 1 hour later I opened the hood to show a friend the intake and the tubes were still burning hot to the touch after an hour. I can't imagine how hot they get when driving in traffic. I am thinking about heat shielding the tubes and was wondering how much of a difference it might make if anyone has already done it.
