I like it the way it is even though it's mismatched. It looks to me like the hood accents the top.

I've often thought of ghost flames for the car, but I just can't bring myself to it. Plus the qoute was like $2000, lol. But that was fron a very well known custom painter.

I bought the car with the paint job already finished, but the paint is what sold me on the car. The guy that I bought it from told me that the painter was "practicing" doing flames, and did them for free. They turned out very good, and I get compliments on them almost every time I take the car out. They're much more suttle than an actual flame paint job, thats why I like them. Only visible at some angles.

ghost flames are top-notch on newer cars that want a lil bit of flair... but would look goofy havin the ol red/yellow/white flames of yesteryear.

still suttle IMO. And I do agree that a full out flame paint job on our cars would look kinda gay.
