Grinding Noise?

i noticed a slight grinding noise while at a complete stop while the car is in neutral. it's weird because the noise will come and go and usually only last a second or two. it's not a constant grind. it sounds like it's coming from under the car or somewhere around the pedals because i can feel a slight vibration on my feet whenever the noise comes. anybody have any ideas on what it might be?

that just happened to me I have a magnaflow on my 03 VIII and I bottomed out because the potholes in nj are CRAZY when they plow after snow especially where I live except I bent it and I was getting the most annoying rattle from the bent front cross bar so I jacked it up and pulled it off and bent it back with vice grips for a temporary solution but no more annoying rattle

it sounds more like a grinding noise. i'm pretty sure my downpipe isn't hitting anything because i double checked that recently. i still have the undertray off. i'll take one more look and see if anything is hitting something.
