I'm still toying with the idea of using flat sheet strips running between each pair of bolts - a bit like the strap on the fuel tank. If I can get the 'humps' exactly the right height it'll clamp the whole contact surface between the bolts. Each strip would be 40mm wide and (say??) 2mm thick.
Here's one supplier (see Flat Bar or Sheet options) - https://www.metalswarehouse.co.uk/custom-cut-metal/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI-se1mIOX5gIVCLTtCh0bdwDXEAAYASAAEgJMgPD_BwE
Good idea again, although I'll be painting the area underneath the heatshield anyway and I'll use stainless steel bolts.

I use a blanking grommet with a hole pushed through. It helps to absorb vibration and reduce tearing
