Default Vinyl wrap experiment

Added sone wrap to the primary cover, timing cover and trans cover.

The wrap should not melt until over 300* F so I,m hoping it's good. If not, it's easy enough to pull off. I hope it stays, cause I really like the looks.

I think it looks great. I am interested on how it holds up too.

I like the look of your covers too.I did my mid frame air deflectors in carbon fibre vinyl wrap and I'm curious too as to how well it will stand the heat.The one on the right side is very near the rocker cover.I won't get to find out for a while,we are getting 20-30 cms of snow tomorrow.

It will probably be a little while until I can truly test it. They are calling for 3+ inches of snow tonight

I just put this on the A/C. I have the same stuff on my truck hood for over a year now no problems. Gets pretty hot down here in South Florida.

I was going to add some like the OP did too,not sure if I like it yet. got the bike on the lift to add some polished lowers and fancy up the front wheel.
