Jack the car up, crank up the bass, find the shield

Once found figure out best solution, could be fix it, remove it, wrap it in heat tape....

That was my plan. Was hoping someone would say"hey i had that and it was x". I know from looking at parts diagram there is a large heat shield above the mufflers. So next week or two I will jack it up and search.
