Default Wrapped them pipes!

Well I got my pipes yesterday, and because I work swings they didn't end up going on until 2am. I kinda felt sorry for the neighbors but not at the same time. Ran to Autozone first thing this morning and grabbed some wrap, and after an hour and a half or so of fighting with it I got em wrapped. First, I guess you could say "mod" to the nightster. Enjoy the pic..I'll have to take more and I know it's crappy but I don't have a camera except for my phone.

Just a little side tip for those you you who want "True" black wrap that wont fade out on you. (personally I like the fade), Lay out your wrap and spray it on both sides with 1200deg flat black engine/header paint. Let dry, then go to town.

That looks great what slip-ons do you have on there it makes it look like drag pipes, or is it a set of wrapped drag pipes?

They're actually a slip on from American Motor company off ebay. They sound good, maybe a little loud for the neighbors though[8D]

So they're basically drags that "slip on"? ...interesting. They look good though!

Great advice! if they are not sprayed they will turn white... just to warn you... looks great!
