Another small change.....
removed the exhaust wrap....what do you think?
before and after
before and after
Here's the finish after i removed the wrap, the scratches existed already as i got this pipe used but you can see where the wrap kind of stained the finish.
im gonna run it like it is but eventually im gonna get the pipe recoated.....

Put it back on man! It was the only thing that broke up all the black when u looked at the bike.
Or try black wrap for a while. Spray that **** down with the hi temp paint and let it distress over time. Would be more subtle than the titanium.

you should post a before and after picture. personally I prefer without and will be removing the heat wrap from my exhaust in the very near future.
Couple of questions for you;
How long did you run your exhaust with heat wrap?
How'd your pipes looks (up close) after you removed the heat wrap? Any pitting or corrosion? - It's hard to tell from your picture.
Are you planning on repainting or recoating your pipes?
Thanks

I'm not a fan of the wrap...So I like the "after" look! Maybe some heat shields with a "brushed" steel finish look would help to break up the ALL black look and add some visual effect...
