V9 Bobber exhaust wrapped and a little painting

I don't want to be a bummer but in my opinion and many others, wrapping is a really bad idea. It will retain moisture and cause the pipes to corrode badly. But to each his own.
The gold is cool!

Yeah I have heard 50/50 on it I don't ride in wet conditions and the bike is stored in a climate controlled garage, so I think I should be ok on it, and I bought the high temp clear silicone spray that is recommended for sealing them also. I will monitor it and keep y'all updated if they rust.
Thanks for compliment on the gold, I have the paint brand and color if anyone wants to know, also I plan on doing my calipers in a Matte Red.

Why do you wrap the exhausts, is it purely cosmetic?

I did it for cosmetic, although some people claim to have power gains from doing it. The only thing that I have noticed is the bike doesn't get super hot while in traffic, and most of the de-throttle pop is gone from the pipes.(The pipes don't have an exhaust leak, I checked and the dealer checked when it was serviced weeks ago)
