Looking for a good tape

[2.2L]

I currently have a small heat shield to prevent the exhaust from melting my bumper. Right now it is taped up with 3m paint tape because i do not have anything that would not be melted by the exhaust.

anyways is there a tape that is resistant to moisture, heat, and hold up for a long time until I have time to take it to an exhaust shop to extend my exhaust hangers?

btw this has become a problem recently as I got it back from a repair from getting rear ended. it had no problem not melting the bumper before i got rear ended.

Simply get the hangers extended. 3M makes a couple different tapes that will work but a roll will cost at least TWICE as much as what it will be to get the work done at a muffler shop.

Look up 3M VHB #4949 ($$$) or the 3M #469 High Temperature Tape (really cheap and supposedly effective up to 350 degrees).

I wish I could lower the hanger. It's not about the money. Currently I'm on Skunk2 Springs with Tokico Illuminas and I barely have a finger gap. Right now I barely clear bumps and the little curb in my driveway. I wish it were that simple or else I wouldn't bother with finding the right tape at all.

Most of the del sols I had had a similiar problem with the bumper melting around aftermarket exhausts. I just grabbed a dremel and sanded the opening in the bumper so it was a bit bigger, then touched up the paint around it. You don't have to open it to a gaping hole... Usually shaving off about a quarter inch will do it.

exactly what i was gonna say. i have had the same problem with 2 of my cars and my girl's car now.

just cut just enough where the muffler doesn't touch.
