Default Tips for isolating exhaust from PPF?

Hey guys anyone got any ideas for not having their exhaust not drone against the ppf? Like a high temp silicone buffer? Or restraining it with like a band? Im just looking for ideas I have a 3" kraken exhaust with no cat

I’ve found that the stock driveshaft is an excellent buffer.

I fail to comprehend the goals of these ersatz Homo sapiens.

Put some screw clamps around the exhaust hangers? I got an extra 1/4 inch doing that, but not on a kracken exhaust.

I would adjust the pipes in front of the resonator/pipe. With the vbands, youll have to move it around a bit. I got mine away from the PPF about a 1/2", then still wrapped the resonator in DEI titanium wrap. New rubber exhaust hanger gaskets would help too, but I just reused mine.
