how about putting a metal plate, between the bumper and the exhaust that is sure to help, ask any BMW guy what the use when they slap a DTM on!

Is it the steam that's melting the bumper? I would just put some duck tap on that section and drive around until you don't see anymore steam coming out. It might take few days.
