Ideally, for the next week I wouldn't drive the car at all, but what sort of distance or time/duration do you think I could drive the car without the exhaust tips on? I would think I'm fine for a 2-5 min drive, 2-5 miles, but am concerned that extended drives of 20+ min, 20 miles could create to much heat on the rear bumper.

Anyone have experience with this? Opinions?

Why am I doing this? I have to drop the tips off for ceramic coating Monday and don't get them back till Friday.

 

I would drive as carefully as possible, if at all!! I had fitment issues with the tips on my exhaust and unfortunately had to drive a little while without them on. It's amazing how much heat and force comes out of the exhaust... I melted the fasteners on both sides and had my bumper half hanging off!! Personally, I'd find another way.

 

I was "getting on it" a little though... Never expected that to happen!!!

 

Ok. So I knew it was going to be blowing heat, and was concerned about he plastic bumper, so I'll keep it to a minimum.
