Default Invidia Exhaust Question

The exhaust fits fine for normal driving, but after this last track day, it melted my bumper in a couple spots. I guess aggressive track driving moves it around enough to touch the bumper. Has this happened to anyone else? Im gona use something else to hold in place better, and try to sand out the ugly burn plastic marks. Or just buy a new exhaust, cause this one is a little loud for me.
what do you all suggest for sucuring it better?

Wire.

Secure one side of the exhaust to the opposite side of the car. Repeat for the other side. GOGOGO used spray paint remover to remove the plastic. Use a drill with a buffing wheel attachment and polishing compound to restore to a beautiful shine.

Using thin wire, secure one end of the wire to the exhaust hanger. Take the other end of that wire and secure it to the undercarriage on the opposite side of the car from where you secure the wire attached to the exhaust hanger.

Repeat for the other side of the exhaust. You'll have opposing forces at work, thereby stabilizing the exhaust.
