Default Ghost Flames on Artic White...?

Ghost Flames on Artic White?

Has anyone ever seen or done Ghost Flames on an Artic White C5? Is it even possible... as I would like them very subtle...so from one angle they are there and yet another they are not.... I would love to see some pictures.

I'm thinking a pearl would look pretty good on white. Could swear that someone on here a while back had ghost flames on a white car, just don't remember who it was.

I agree the ghost flames would look great on a white car. Extremely subtle. I hope someone posts some pics.

I have pearl red ghost flames on mine, but I can't get the damn things to show up in pictures. I'm going to have some professional pictures taken of my car one of these days.
