Default daft question....

hope you guys can help.
got a set of V&H big shots, and the heat shields have started to rust up.
(im in the UK). ive decided to wrap the pipes, as i like the look.
would you remove the heat shields and wrap the bare pipe, or wrap them with the heat shields on????
or does it make no real difference which way you do it??
many thanks.

AS far as I know you never wrap the shields.
Hahahaha goat party! I guess you need those knee high boots to slide the goat's hind legs in so she can't run away! Cheers!
