Just wondering how heat resistant it is, meaning real carbon fiber or even like if you go through the process of wrapping yourself, like with the hardener and the cloth and all that stuff. Just curious.

That carbon fiber stuff on cars just for looks its nothing compared to the stuff they use on Stealth bombers or the jet going to the Moon. If you wrap you headers on that stuff using the resin and carbon fiber, Its going to catch on fire. Use the exhaust wraps.
