Default has dis happened to you

i was drivinyesterday just cruisin around wen i saw a huge plastic bag. i was goin to avoid it but i couldnt so ijust went over. i looked in my rearview mirror to c if it came out through da back but it didnt. well i pulled over 1 minute later and i looked under my car and i saw da plastic stuck to da exhaust. it melted onto da exhause so i took off wat i could. well now wen i drive i could smell plastic burnin. my gf thought my car was going to burn up or sumtin but i told her wat happend and now my car smells alot. i guess i have to wait till it burns off or melts off. have u guys ever had any similar expiriences

haha almost a few times. ive heard of it before. if you want, wait until the car is completely cool... then wait a few more hours lol because the exhaust can get so hot it will burn your skin off, then just scrape it off

yea i had this happen on my first neon. it doesnt completely burn out for a long time ,and all i got was this burning plastic smell for two months until i scraped it off but since i waited so long the smell lasted for 3 more weeks. cause i couldnt get it off completely.

Probably a useless reply since not many have access to the same chemicals i do, but using Sem Solve melts plastics, adhesives, etc. The bag thing has happened to me twice, got desperate after the first time's smell stuck around for a couple weeks and covered the second in Sem Solve. Melted it to goo in about 30 seconds and i wiped it off with a rag.
