Default Bumper exit exhaust bubbling paint/melting bumper

Just curious if anyone has a solution. I have a huron T6 kit and where the exhaust exits the bumper it wants to melt the bumper/bubble the paint. If I cut the hole any larger it will be into the wheel well. I wrapped the exhaust but it doesn't seem to make much of a difference. Thanks for any suggestions

Yea, pictures would help. do you have a ring around the hole to help with direct heat from the pipe? Is it only burning the paint behind ( rearward) of the pipe like when your driving?

Pics would help. Mine sticks out probably 4in. from the bumper with a small ring around the hole and it's fine.

Mine has been fine. Just a little black soot on the bumper but that's to be expected.

Yep. But it can still burn paint when the car is moving by the heat leaving the pipe and being swept down the side of the car. But normally this plate does the trick. This is all I am doing on my truck.
