Downpipe Heat Shield Removal

Trying to remove my downpipe but I can't get the bottom two bolts out. Tried penetrating oil and heating it up. Heating it up seemed to cook the gasket, so I stopped that. Not a lot of room for extending my box-end wrench, and not enough space to get a socket and breaker bar. Any advice would be appreciated.
