Hi lightning01, I'm not sure which plastic component you're referring to, but you can purchase what they call "heat shield". If this is on exterior trim that's normally visible this may not work. I would either try altering the plastic trim to provide room for extreme the exhaust heat or try lowering the exhaust with longer hangers. Good luck!
