well alot of people wrap the flex section in exhaust pipe insulation wrap - feels like a cloth fabric w/ fiberglass to get rid of the bees in a can noise but you could use it to cover the fraying. as for any other damages - theres a bandage type wrap you can get at autozone that sticks over the damaged area and melts and molds into place as it cures from being heated up.

The frayed section isn't what holds the exhaust gasses in though, there is a section of accordion-like flex pipe inside that braided section. Anyways you can just buy a new flex section and have it fixed for probably $30 at any place that can weld. Or try talking to cattman himself about it.

Warpspeed does the flex section fix. Look at their website or call them.
