Is your crossmember brace rattling against your exhaust?

this might be the problem. I feel like the chatter might be coming from the exhaust rubbing against something metal. Is there a heat shield on top of the stock exhaust that maybe came loose? Its either the exhaust or wheel well area its hard for me to determine exactly where the chatter its coming from. It's a "thin rattling" so it leads me to believe its some type of thin sheet metal.

The guys in the "what did you do with your Z today (with off topic replies)" thread thought this too...
