Bumper Fire???? Exhaust Tips

My new performance exhaust system touches the rear bumper. The tips are held up against the bumper pretty strong and it gets pretty hot since it is a high flow muffler.

Do I need to worry?

Is the gray part over the muffler tips made of aluminum or is that plastic. I cannot tell by feeling it or looking at it.

I have seen pictures of other cars whose bumpers caught on fire from exhaust.

Keep in mind that I will be driving it hard at the race track for 4 hours on Saturday. 1 hour breaks after each hour of driving.
