When taping the exhaust do you start at the heads or at the tail end of the pipes? Its looking good. I'm really digging the front end.

Start at the outlet end and wrap toward the engine.

Thanks for the compliment!

Are you looking at the wrap job on a small screen?

Just because the in-progress work was sloppy and I didn't want to give the wrong impression...

I was actually thinking the same thing! I kinda dig it. It sprayed rust converter on it just to keep it from pitting but it turned out pretty cool.

Btw, in case of possible misinterpretation...my comment was in regards to Yamaharley not be able to see direction of the wrap...nothing to do with the quality of job
