Pretty much the only reason it is there. To keep the car as quiet as possible, any other reason is purely coincidental. Bonnets do not need the heat protection...even GT4`s (remember the charge cooler is usually quite cool to touch compared to the rest of the engine bay). Engines dont need to be kept warm. etc etc I is purely to keep the noise down.
