exhaust melting
does the HKS 30th ann. exhaust burn or melt the bumper. I ordered a RMR but hasnt shipped they are redesigning them so they dont melt the bumper. I am going to go TUrbo xs though

I've got an EVO VII HKS Hi-Power on mine.. It comes right up to the edge of the bumper.. I get black on the bumper but it doesn't melt.. You can get the black off right away with rubbing compound... A few strokes and it's gone..

I took off one of the cat' converters and ran an aluminum test pipe with an American Racing 2.5"/4" exhaust and I get zero black or melting...and the tip is very close to my bumper.

I have the RMR exhaust along with the RMR downpipe and I am having the bumper burning problem to. It is also making a mark on the muffler from being rubbed and burned. How the hell can I get this fixed.
