I find the combination of the license plate "flamin' bird" and the pink/purple logo to be funny as hell. It looks a lot better without the badges though, good choice.

Nice, much cleaner look. Compliments your theme.

FLMNRD funny? Its actually orange, purple and magenta like the color of the flames. I guess since I'm a girl those colors are acceptable Thanks for the compliments from you and Hammy . I'll admit it was too busy back there. I am going to repaint the center tailfiller soon...whenever I have the extra money for an airbrush and compressor again

I got the taillight from Highpockets on here...he's parting out his 2000 Formula. I was so glad to finally get one...was so sick of that blackened taillight. At night you could barely see it lit up

I like the way the back of that looks. That's the taillights I'm wanting. Been looking their hard to find used.

Thanks..I agree. I'm debating on what to do with the tailfiller

I did two versions in photoshop a couple weeks ago. One is to change the orange of the fill in letters to match the front orange rather then the outline of the flames orange and no "formul" or to totally black out the tailfiller.





I think totally blacked out looks too plain

it does look really plain, especially considering the color on the front of the car. maybe just black out the "formula" part and leave the bird?

**edit** okay so i'm stupid, that's what you did in the first chop there. i think that looks a little better than with "formula" there. still not sure though. are the birds on the side pillars in the same colors?

also i think it could help if you either ditched the orange "pontiac" fill ins or go stainless or black.

I really think it looks better blacked out.. To me the back looks cluttered with all the colors goin on back there..

I had the fill in's black prior to the flames then kept them on there and it didnt match
I think I'll go with the bird and no "formula". Stainless wouldnt match because there's nothin else but the license plate frame stainless. The birds are purple and magenta candy paint like the flames.
