Default Ghost Flames please post Pics

Does anybody have ghost flames painted on the ride? I am thinking of having ghost flames painted from behind the brake duc to include a portion of the door panel. If anybody has any pics please post. I was thinking of something suttle that does not shout out GHOST FLAMES!

Here are a couple of photos I've "snagged" off the forum, that show tastefully done flames. Hope that helps.

Not the best picture. Flames are ghosted in silver, pinstriped in torch red to match interior. Very subtle.



Good luck on getting it exactly the way you want. i love flames.

They don't show up well in the pictures, but there are smaller ghost flames in between the more visible ones.

I really like the C-5 flames. That is what I wanted to see. Looks like we might do it during the of season. I suppose Christmas will be new flames on the rocket. Tim as to the lambo doors, I think there a little out of my price range for now. Perhaps down the road provided I save all my pennies.
