Would like to confirm if the the heat shield above the muffler is bolted into the cross section of the rear trunk from underneath or is it welded in place?

Just learned I don't have one installed and the heat is baking my new paint in the trunk from underneath. Have one sourced already and will also be going with heat insulation matting for extra protection.
