i thought you said you were putting ghost flames on it, that doesnt look too ghostly to me.

with that said, that does look very cool.

Its got 2 sets of flames, the first set of ghost flames are pearl orange with burgandy pearl tips, the second set is marblized purple with pearl copper tips and ghosts.

I agree, from the pics, its a bit much without seeing the rest of the car. When I get it outside I'll post a few of the whole car and it settles down a little bit.

The headlights are going in the lower grill openings.
