Default spun my car

I spun my 01 s2000 andsoftly rolled into a grass ditch. No major damange just scared the piss out of me. I recently completely changed out my exhaust and the mufflers melted the plastic cut outs on the bumper. I also think the exhaust has broken a weld or something because I hear a rattling sound when I take right turns. The exhaust has melted black plastic on both sides. The questions I have are 1. How do you get plastic off the mufflers with out scratching them. 2. It looks like I will have to replace my entire bumper inorder to fix the damange done to the black piece on the bottom. Is that going to be the case?

just wondering what exhaust did you put on that melted your plastic? but ya your only way to fix the rear would be to buy a new bumper.

you should. a well designed exhaust system specificly designed for one car by a well known company should not melt the rear valence. i have a J's racing exhaust and mine doesn't even discolor my rea valence. i would try to contact them and see if they will remberce you in some way.
