Check your PM. You buy my exhaust wrap. It got Sony guts. Cheap cheap cheap!

Here are a couple if things I found out when I did a mock-up of the wrap:
- Its easy enough to wrap the pipes up high, but as you move down the gaps between the pipes narrows to the point the thickness of the wrap is greater than the space available. That meant us have to stop the wrap higher than I really wanted, or do an "overwrap" of all four pipes at the bottom. Maybe not so bad, but not what I really wanted.
- To get the headers on and off, you need to he able to move around the flange that bolts the headers up. It wasn't clear to me if, or how, I'd be able to go that if the wrap were there. But, maybe somebody else could make it work.
On the up- side: the DEI product is much higher quality than the wrap I put on my Low Rider. That chit was like black fiberglass tape; it had to be soaked before application and it lost its color quickly. This stuff is an order of magnitude easier to use, and it looks like it'll hold up much better.
