It's an install issue. Check your exhaust first as the headers may have shifted it a bit and that could be what's actually hitting.

Did you do it yourself or did a shop do it?

FYI, there are plenty of threads about this.

I think this was covered before , by filing down the stud on the heat shield bolt, unless you bought your car with the headers the first version had some issue with clearances , search function is your best friend
