Greddy evo-2 catback

Ok, Its been like 3 weeks now since I have had my greddy evo-2 exhaust installed. I got the bumper burning part fixed but now I think Im smelling something else burning. Could anyone tell if anything else can be burning aside from the bottom of the bumper?

Look under neath the car. When I first turboed my car, I parked over a piece of plastic bag. That shit melted on my downpipe and smell didnt go away for weeks.

My thermal exhaust did the same. It took forever for the burning smell to go away....

Is the paint on the bottom of the muffler, because that would mean something got stuck to it. If it's closer to the top maybe it's rubbing, but I doubt greddy would make an exhaust that would rub.
