Default exhaust problem

After installing my stock oem rear bumper today, a problem approached. As i put the rear bumper on i realized that my exhaust(no name exhaust; not stock) touches the bumper. i was wondering if there is a way to adjust the exhaust so that it wont touch the bumper and melt if it was too hot. please help me wit this issue cus im really worry.

sort of a rig but the hangers shouldn't get too hot. This could be a temporary fix. Zip ties through the little hole on the rubber hanger mount and then make a little chain of them to go down to the metal hanger then just make sure the last one is tight around the end of the hanger. again temporary rig...
