I just got my JP Vizage lip kit installed and I have the Injen exhaust that burned and peeled the back lip around the exhaust! My exhaust sits behind the lip and I see many other exhausts on SL that protrude passed the opening in the bumper, which I think would solve the problem. I am thinking I could cut the bumper up a half inch or so to hopefully give enough room for hot exhaust, some how extend the exhaust so it does not rest behind the lip, or buy a CF cover to place around the opening. Of these options or others that I may not be aware of, what would work the best?

I will post a pic tomorrow! Thanks

I had the same problem with my SP2. You could try changing the exhaust hanger. They have longer hangers that will allow the exhaust to sit lower.

HKS burnt my kaminari bodykit. Kinda sucks. Not sure other than using a different hanger so its away from the bumper.

My Dang BBP exhaust burned my bumper and melted into my bumper...Had to Yank it out!....Then I just stuck a few bottle caps into the rubber hanger...Problem Solved!

Yeah... where can these longer hangers be found?

On another note... you don't think cutting the bumper or half inch would help?

or even buying a plate to position around the lip of the bumper?

Where did you get the carbon fiber heat guard and how would I know if it will fit the JP Vizage kit mouth?

for hangers, go to kartboy.com. but in the comments, ask for a 12mm i believe, or just ask for a scion tC one since they don't have it on their website anymore.

no.

also with that CF heat shield... the one on ebay won't fit your kit... it's made specifically for a stock tc bumper... so it looks like you need to fix your exhaust or get a complete new one.
