All Viking appliances (at least the cooktops, I am guessing ranges too)
require a back plate to be installed, and I think they won't sell you
the unit without also buying the back. Those burners can put out a LOT
of heat (>=12k BTU on the newer ones), and it is there for mostly
protection to whatever is behind the unit. SS is the specified
material, tile won't do. They also specify a hood to go with them.
--R (who is looking at cooktops for the new kitchen, and would love a
Viking but they cost more than most of my cars now, yow!)

If you'll settle for cheap steel, you could get an old car hood. If
you leave the star on it will even look pretty classy.
You might want to rethink the thick stainless anyway - that's going to
add a lot of weight to the area. You're just blocking splatters, not
explosions, right? :)
Best,
