catalytic converter heat shield

I have a 2006 Acura TSX and just recently started hearing a rattling underneath the car when idling. I took it in today and the heat shield over the catalytic converter has begun to rust, and one of the bolts is not connected anymore. Anyone know if they sell just a heat shield and how much it would cost?

Heat Shield Fix

Very common problem with TSX. Some people remove the heatshield or in my case I purchased radiator-hose type clamps at Advanced Auto ($3 set of 2 clamps) and wrapped around outside of shield. Cheap fix and very easy to completed. Good luck.
