Clanging noise heard after installing rear sway bar.

So i've had the progress sway bar on for about a few month's now, been really happy with it except that lately i've started to hear a clanging noise every time i go over a bump. It sounds as if metal is banging against another metal. I took it to Acura and they couldn't reproduce the sound. I even took it to the place that installed the sway bar. They heard it but couldnt pinpoint exactly where the clanging is coming from. Any idea's what it could be and what i should do or try out?

Sounds like a bad end link.

Im pretty sure it's the heat shield's right above the dual exhaust tip's. Will i get any problem if i remove them?

Can you modify/bend it out of the way?

I don't think so there isnt much space between the shield and the exhaust to bend it anywhere.
