Default Aluminum manifold question...

I just had an 85mm Professional Products Intake installed. I've never had a metal intake, but I knew it was going to get hot....really hot. Do I need to put something between the ice bags and the manifold when I'm icing it down at the track? I'm not sure if the plastic bags would melt on the intake or not because I've never had to ice down a hot manifold before.

It's only going to get about 200* or so. You could test out a bag to see if it melts. Post some pics of that thing!
