      Locally is going to be your best bet though. Sheets of plastic get expensive to ship as they go up in size.

          He probably wants to use it as a heatshield on his intake. Won't get that hot.

              alluminum is preferred, but for cheap plastic, go buy a small garbage can at home depot.

                Why would you want a a piece of metal that conducts heat over something does it less?

                  Go to a local sign shop and ask to look at the alumacore they have avaible, its a great insulator of heat. its two real thin layers of aluminum with plastic sandwiched in the middle.
