I purchased an E-line pipe guard in 98 for my Fatty Rev pipe. It has really protected it from the elements, but is pretty scratched up. Wax seems to shine it up, but it burns off. If the FRP pipe guard had been out, which it may have, I would have gotten it. 99 bucks is to much for a pipe guard. Course the price of a pipe is about $160. But here are the cons of the E-line, the thing is falling apart, I have noticed some internal cracking, and now the Kevlar fiberglass is starting to pull away on the edges. So go with the FRP pipe guard, do just as good, and maybe want fall apart. :)
