I don't like them at all - even though that is only a Photoshop, it would still look cheap in real life. JMO.

DAMN!!! They had me talked out of it until I saw the one you posted. That's way close to what I envisioned. Looks great!

Hey BigKernal.

I have a black car, here are some pics

http://groups.msn.com/GMsFbody/themo...to&PhotoID=239

I want to have a staggeringly subtle flame job. the type where you look at the car one way you cannot see them, look at it another way you may JUST make them out.

I'm not saying money is no object, but assume that I might paint the whole car at the same time, you have any idea.

I want a deep, rich black on the car and these flames would have a magenta / purple / black cherry tone to them. Does the chameleon paint offer any possabilities? Does that sound doable? Will it look good? Anyone have an pics of a similar set up?

Also, I'm pulling the motr this winter (again) and want toknow about the best way to paint the engine bay and possibly the undercarriage. Should I get it painted? I have heard of this enamel typpe black gloss product that I think you hand paint on.Suppose to be for the undercarriage. very durable. Any guidance would be great.

Wow those colors work amazingly well together. I have always liked that blue. Anyone got any pics of a pewter car with ghost flames? I don't think it would be the same affect, just curious.
