Default Thunderheader wrap size?

I know some of you guys have wrapped T-head. Any advice on what size wrap goes on best and or looks best? 1" or 2"

It can be done with one 50 ft roll of 2". I've actually wrapped mine two different ways.The first time down to the collector like so


And the second time I stopped before the collector

The reason I stopped before the collector and probably will from now on is just before the collector under the right foot peg is the first thing to touch down when you lean into a corner and it will destroy your wrap job in a hurry.You may notice my home made skid plate in the first picture that was made after I tore a big hole in my brand new wrap job.

2" wrap.. great price here http://www.thermalsound.com/proddeta...special&cat=39 This way you can have 100 feet of wrap for less than what others charge for 50 feet. So you can overlap better and have extra in case you mess up or need it in the future.
