Bending a chrome heat shield + pad question

First Question:
Is it possible to put a flare on one of those 7" chromed heat shields?
Like this one:
Cobra Heat Shield 2"
I'd like to bend/flair out one end from the clamp down so it won't rub on my Dyna muffler.
I don't know if that's possible without destroying the heat shield.
Second Question:
Those little pads on the inside of the foot peg heat shield...what are they called? Can I buy them?
Just thinking of ways I can dampen the heat shield covering my Dyna adapter against the header/muffler.

The link looks like they are radiused but not flared. But I know what you mean.
Run a strip of heat wrap under the shield clamps. That will raise the shield maybe 1/16". Maybe even double the wrap right under the center of the heat shield for 1'8" raise. More than that and you may need the next larger diameter heat shield.
