pic request

Well, my JIC spec90 exhaust is burning a hole in the bumper. I have been told to place some kind of aluminum on the bumper around the exhaust tip to protect the bumper...anyone have any pics of that? i just want to get some ideas before doing so...

thanks,

I would be concerned that if any type of material be placed on the bumper, it would still melt, through convection. A suspended shield to protect the bumper would be best....Heat would be deflected by the shield, yet air could travel over the shield between the shield and bumper....However that can be done.
Muffler just can't be lowered slightly?
Remedy should prove to be interesting.

Maybe Jason (JT Imports) can get that for you? He's in .jp and has access to all kinds of crap that we don't.
