looks kind of cool on the bike, but the bike doesn't have the body lines that Vette's do - I think that if you do them on your car, you will ruin your body lines - don't do it!

Interesting and different but I would question the look on the body.

Bet the 3D flames would look good on the fuel rail covers though.

Ghost is one thing, 3-D is cheesy. Don't ruin your car.

Personally, they're not for me. Just don't think they will look good on a C5.
