Exhaust is resting on gtspec chassis brace.

Essentially i have been searching my underbody for a rattle for the past month and i found it.

my exhaust (fast intentions) is resting on my 4 point chassis brace.

I'm assuming the exhaust wore in and sagged a little. Is there any type of rubber or cardboard that could be placed in between them to absorb the rattle?

I only feel this rattle at idle. Anything above idle rpms resonates this rattle and i don't feel it.

install pic for the brace on w/ stock exhaust.

I have the same problem with my HKS. It rattles my whole car at around 3000rpms. I am curious to know if putting a rubber pad in will help it too.

I don't know what will help. I had the same problem with my injen. It got really annoying so I took the brace off.
