Default What do you think?

It is only a photoshop, it would probably ruin my resale if I did it. Any one got any good photos with flame paint jobs.

Gardiner,

I think this is "too much." There is a guy over at the Z06.com forum (who goes by WiseGuyZ) and he has what I would consider a "mild" flame treatment on his MY Z06 and it looks pretty good. (IMHO)

I'm going with the consensus here....don't care for it. Maybe some ghost flames might look better. :yesnod:

Change the color to black and make sure you paint the whole front end of the car and you've got a winner :thumbs: I've thought about a custom flame job before! Other than black some nice perl ghost flames would be :cool:. Oh year f'uck re-sale make the vette as cool as you want! Just use good taste and dont'a dd pink flames or something.

All it needs now are fuzzy dice and dingleballs. I'd vote ghost flames.
