An assembly for managing heat and noise generated by an engine comprises a dash panel, an acoustic absorbing layer, a scrim, and a heat reflective coating. The acoustic absorbing layer comprises a plurality of fibers secure in a resin, where the acoustic absorbing layer is positioned proximate to the dash panel. The scrim is positioned proximate to the acoustic absorbing layer. The heat reflective coating comprises a polymer material and heat reflecting additives dispersed in the polymer material. The heat reflective coating is applied to the scrim as a solution of the polymer material and heat reflecting additives.
