    Hey guys,
    I'm looking for a source of header wrap so I can do my new system on the 2007. They charge through the nose for the stuff at my local auto parts place once they find it. Most shops up here don't even know what it is.

    I want to say I paid $65 for 50'x2" and the steel clamps. Suck part is that NAPA pays taxes in my local community and wages to some schmuck employee to feed his kid.

    I used DEI Titanium exhaust wrap for the mid pipe on my '03 Jethro. This stuff is the Shiznit and it absolutely looks like a million bucks. It's kind of a shimmery brownish gold color that really pops in the sunlight.

    The wrap itself is made from pumice not fiberglass so there's no messy prickly fibers falling off no need to wear gloves while wrapping your pipes no need to pre-wet the wrap before you wrap your pipes and no need to spray silicone sealant on the wrap when you're done.
    This stuff lays up so easy it's ridiculous! I'll prolly never go back to fiberglass wraps again.

    I got a 2" X 35' roll of it on Ebay from the seller motorsports_24_7 for $29.99 shipped,came with 6 stainless steel clamps too.

    Here's a link to DEI's home website incase you're interested,they offer that Titanium wrap in a wide variety of sizes and lengths.

    Hey!
    Now were talking!
    That looks awesome and this is why the forum rules. I learn something new every day eh.

    I threw a bone to the local NAPA types so their employees don't starve by buying a mini cooper wheel bearing there this week. I like to do my part and spread the buttah around a bit.

    That looks frikkin awesome.

    I have white on mine and it hasn't discoloured too much (where road grime isn't getting flicked on it).

    Black looks better IMO and titanium looks INCREDIBLE...
