I had to lower my exhaust. ^the metal plate would just get hot and transfer to the plastic. Check member's ride.

lowering your exhaust is our best bet.

My exhaust sags for that reason and I hate it. I thought about cutting a spot in the OEM bumper for the exhaust tips, but not sure hoe I could do that myself w/out ruining it all.
