If your looking for the least cost. Just go to a scrap yard and get some 10 - 12mm steel plate/bar and cut them by hand.

Head to your local steel profile cutting place, take the gaskets, and they can knock some out reasonably priced and easy!

I know Liverpool exhausts have 4AG engine side plates, they shouldn't cost too much (the whole extractors aren't expensive). There is a fair chance they will have the turbo side as well..
