Just make sure it's a JDM exhaust off a stock Civic...otherwise it's not really JDM.

Mmmm...burning plastic, no smell like it. I would go with some steel wool, that's probably your best bet.

that just happened to me, right around my driveshaft before my differential

I had a plastic bag stuck to my cat in an older car, it stayed there for MONTHS...I would definetly scrub it off--unless you enjoy getting high off the fumes

What about Goof Off, that stuff will melt/eat through anything, just be sure to wipe

it off before you turn your car on!
