My black 96 had red pearl ghost flames, but I lost all the pics due to a computer crash

However, I know I'll catch all sorts of grief for this, but I thought it looked pretty clean. Black 96 with Chrome A-molds and red pearl ghost flames!

Let us know of your decision and definately get some pics up of the new paint job!

yeah i will have to say that ghost flames are something that can add a nice little touch to your car. One of those things you dont notice til your up close. I think the color of your car has some say in if it will look good(for example: yellow a no, black a yes) .

I really like the ghost flame, and i understand their called ghostly because of their transparency. But wouldnt you want the flame to be just a bit more bolder? like maybe outline the flames?

I have seen some beautiful ghost flames on several Vettes. My only problem is finding someone with the talent and experience to do it on my vert. I live in NASCAR country and nobody does this kind of art work. I guess I'd have to drive out to SoCal.
