Default Wrapping Rineharts

So I started wrapping my 2-1 Rineharts for my sporty and came across a bit of a dilemma. I wrapped right around the spot that bolts to the bracket on the bike assuming that I could just make a slit through the wrap to fit the bolts into; but then I got to thinking that the wrap would just then come unraveled.(Aren't I brilliant?) I thought about just putting the bolts in this slot first and wrap around it but I'm not too sure where they will need to be when I attach it back on the bike. Here's a few pics to clarify all this hoopla!


I'm sure there is an easy solution to this. I just can't think of it.

I wrapped mine just up to the collector and left the end chrome. I used a 3" plumbing clamp on the end.Check my sig.

Ok, so I did kinda take your advise and just wrap up until the collector; although instead of leaving it chrome, I decided to scotch brite the **** out of it. It looks great IMO. Very happy w/ it. I'll get some pics up as soon as i can.
