Just a thin piece of metal will help to combat the heat that is radiating off the housing. I've used some aluminum sheeting from the hardware store before.
Either way, 1.5" is enough gap. It shouldn't get hot enough to damage anything but maybe the paint on the strut tower.
I think one time Matt's floor was glowing red in the drift car and melted his shoes...
