PS As another DIY mod, I picked out the best-looking finned computer heat sink from work and I think it would work pretty well jammed between the exhaust and the plastic. I've got adhesive insulating material on the underside of the plastic which is much thicker than the thin stuff that Honda glue on at the factory.

That XR makes me feel all warm inside......
I miss mine... I hope my new DRZ fill the hole a little.
A quick note on the exhaust wrap though... Keep a very close eye on it.
Exhaust wrap
If you get holes, it superheats it and causes FIRE !!!!!!!!
