you'll need 10, 12, and 14mm tools.
quick tip.. you'll need a long 10 mm wrench to get to the heat sheild nuts on the passenger side. they are pretty deep in there.

i just took a look at my stock down pipe in my garage and the bolts are also 10 mm.
just curious... why do you want to take your heat sheilds off?
