It's not going to work unless the viewer is signed up for Myspace and your friend. Just save the images and upload them to tinypic.com.

ok first lets post some pictures from photobucket and not myspace so everyone can see them second Paul im thinking that your right spring loaded dount gasket has been installed wrong ill see if I have any pics to post up of mine if not ill have to grab them later tonight but that def sounds like either A an install error or B an over exaggeration of the cant fit a piece of paper between them

I garantee that the "cant fit a piece of paper between them" is no exaggeration. I have already tried it first hand when i had my car on a lift. to see what kind of clearance i had and only a thin piece of paper would fit in between them and thats it. As for the photos, thats a my bad. I never had to post a pic here on SL so i didnt know what to do. Ill try fixing the problem. I do think it might be an install error but not sure so pics from someone elses kit would greatly be appriciated so i can compare with mine.

I had the same issue with my custom spipe - i used the dei wrap - u only need the small kit - the narrow stuff - its $30 - with 2.5" pipe itll go about 24-30" so you should be fine Youll also need the metal bands to secure the wrap they go for $8 a pack - should only need one pack as itll have 4 in it.

Hey thanks for your input. Before i go with the heat wrap though, im going to see if i just happend to install it wrong. Id rather fix the problem the right way before considering alternatives.
