Well, I finally got around to doing it...btw, I definitely recommend taking the header out and doing it outside of the car...doing it in the car would be really difficult. Took me about 2 hrs since I took my time and had to be creative wrapping the part where they merge together. I added this in addition to oranger's thread in the DIY sect. so this should be helpful.
I present you....my newly wrapped header:
And here's the supplies I needed:
-two rolls of 15' by 2" wide exhaust insulating wrap (I only used about 19' of it though
-Snap Straps I bought a box of 12 but only 6 were needed
-measuring tape
-needle nose pliers to pull the tape through tight clearances
-scissors to cut it to size
-latex gloves (this stuff is like bare fiberglass so it'll irritate you skin if you don't wear these)
-pan of water to make tape more pliable
TOTAL COST..............50 bucks....you don't need the big pack of snap straps or THAT much tape though, so you could prob. get this done for 30 or so
