SS Exhaust Heat Shield
hey guys

my greddy ti is starting to yellow my bumper a little.
i dont really want to drill holes into my bumper and i was told that some people are using clips to install their stainless steel heat shields.

also how far can you push the shield into the bumper?

pictures would be great

thanks

I think the CF just sticks out too much, it doesn't blend in well with the bumper unless your driving a black or GG evo.

Without being to vain, or "look at me" isn't that the point of carbon fiber? I mean trunks, hoods, spoilers, etc. Those all stick out and catch your eye.

That is why I'm taking off that godforsaken wing. I haven't been hassled by cops nor have I gotten any tickets, I just don't want any unwanted attention. Also instead of paying $100 for that CF bandaid, I'd rather go to the root of the problem and lengthen the exhaust a little.

Do these ss heat shieds as well as cf ones actually work? I like the cf ones more, but not too sure if they're mostly for bling or if they work good.

I thought most of the carbon fiber ones were attached by just double sided tape?
