I think they look pretty good. Not to much. Let's see the finished product though?

have never really been a huge fan of flames, but yours so far look very classy as far as flames go. But as someone said above, your car, your taste!! If thats what you like, go for it, every vette can be personalized in your own way...

but i do love the color!! keep up the work!

Did the flames down both sides, the painted fuel rail covers, front license plate cover, and around the rear CORVETTE letters for a $200
donation to the 100 Club. They take care of injured firemen and policemen when something bad happens to them on the job. The painter was from San Diego. Styles was his last name. Have his card at home. Was supposed to be the best guy there for flames. Each one seemed to have a different style and specialty.
