Default sweet!

Before I even bought the vette, I had planned on putting a true fire flame job on it, but it was going to come out of large duct in front of the doors on both sides, and then gently "roll" off the rear fenders, making it look like the vette had two jet turbines on each side with afterburners on. I was looking for a black vete, but instead found a wonderful silver one. So, now instead of true fire, I'm thinking about some ghost flames instead, with maybe a burning skull or something intregrated in it. Oh, by the way, I want to airbrush it myself! Max
