I like the rims on your vette. But the flames look better on the truck.

one of my buds has a yellow Z and he's thinking silver or black, Brent at A-1 took a picture of my car and truck and super-imposed diferent designs and colors till I told him what I liked. Then he created it just as it looked on the pic he e-mailed. So if you want, I'm sure he can do the same with your car. PM me and I'll give you his info.

FYI: I am not making a penny on this. I have only provided these pics on CF for forum members.

For both the Vette and the Truck!

It's restrained and tasteful--not at all overdone (the amount and color of the flames). Nice...

The flames look better on the vette than I thought they would, but I also like them on the truck more.

I like it....but if you are going to paint start at the front of the car or directly behind the front wheels....I think it would look better than on top the wheel

on the contrary, I like the placement, coming off the wheelwell to keep the curve going.

I like em though, however if you do decide to paint em on, see if they can darken the edges a little so they wouldnt look so cut and paste.

It's simple, clean, and totally complimentary to the lines of your Vette. I really like the effect!
