I've seen them on a yellow Vette (Sorry, no pictures) and they look great. You might want to think about using pearl orange, pearl white, etc. for them.

I've seen them too and they do look fantastic. The only thing that has held me back is $$$$.

Just to be the Ying to your Yang, how many Ferraris, Lambos, or Porsches do you see with "ghost flames" or other "paint schemes"? Not to say there is anything wrong with them, but the more restrained the better, IMHO. See GBVette for an example of what I mean.

Mine are pearl red and are so light that you can't see them unless you catch them just right in the light.
