& you dont want or need to wrap the exhaust pipe, its best to wrap the line itself & uses less or smaller material. also that far back in the exhaust the pipes arent really "that" hot so a layer of the cheaper/thinner stuff will be more than enough. heres the split velcro stuff from summit...

Thanks, I think that's what I'm looking for. Also, I was able to re-route the lines a little so they're not closer than 3" or so from exhaust pipe now.
