Have the roll - but what stuff do you use to secure the end of it on the manifold/downpipe?

Lock wiring looks the neatest or you can use hose Clips or metal cable ties.

i would also advise soaking the heat wrap so it is ringing wet and then fit it using metal cable ties and when it dries out it shrinks and tightens up
