the only shield I can think of is the like x plastic piece that sits across from the radiator. unless your talking the air dam and yea it still attached cause I know what it's there for lol just can't see it in the picture, I'm like inside the bumper taking the picture lol

This has been my setup for two years now, runs cold lol 160* tstat and tuned for earlier fans
