I used a heat shield I bought at a speed shop that is supposed to wrap around your starter. It measures approx. 8"x12". It has velcro straps, but I wrapped a hose clamp around it as it was never dsigned to go directly on the exhaust pipe.
I had the exhaust system out of the car this weekend, and wrapped it in header wrap I bought from J.C. Whitney. The starter heat shield I used was still in good shape, but I figuired while I had everything out I might as well do it right. I think J.C. Whitney charges ~$25 for a 1"x25' roll, plus I bought the installation kit (stainless steel tie wraps) for ~$16. FWIW the plastic "zip strips" only last about 30 minutes.
