Making a heat shield air intake

Hey guys,

Do any of you have experience regarding building your own air intake / heat shield?
My IC does a great job, but I feel like my intake temperature is a bit high at times - Especially when idling for a while. The air filter is just open in the engine bay, and I'd like to improve this setup.
How would one proceed with measuring / designing the heatshields? I want to utilize the OEM air vents in the grille.
