Default Heat shield- What are you using?

Just placing another order for odds n ends and would like to get some insulation for fuel and brake lines, starter etc. What are you all using? And where?

Header wrap from the flange to under the firewall but it was a big mistake to use fiberglass, use the good titanium stuff if you use it.
Header wrap for about 20" and a heat shield where the exhaust runs under the gas tank.
JC whiteny floor insulation that worked remarkably good for the price.
DEI starter blanket.
I picked up a roll of aluminum thermo insulation tape at home depot to wrap wires and lines in sensitive areas.

12,000 miles so far so good...
