Backfire/Misfire Deflector?
I saw a Skyline on cardomain with a special Carbon Fiber plate (made by ATTAIN) on it's rear bumper that sort of surrounded the exhaust, apparently for the purpose of keeping the bumper from getting burnt. Has anyone ever seen this sort of part before, and does anyone know where to get them?
I have a 10 day old car and no mods, so I don't exactly need one, but I hadn't ever seen these for sale anywhere (or heard of them at all) and was just curious.

I've seen them at a local tuning shop, you can do the same thing with a rectangular piece of sheet metal that is mildly pliable and some small screws or rivets. They do help if your exhaust is too close to the bumper which can not only discolor paint but melt the plastic on hard runs.
