Default My ghost flames....



JR's Customs in Waco, Texas stripped my bling and went to town with some aluminum pearl on the front and blue pearl towards the back. I let JR loose on the design and he decided against the standard straight up the hood cuz the low, sleek stance of my car just screams long and flowing. He wanted to push the flames off the side in a pattern that resembles the flow of the 4th-gen Firebird logo, and..what you see is what i got. Like all true ghost flames, pics don't do it justice...it's a 3D work of art that you have to see at all angles to get aroused. I'm pleased and it's turnin heads around here even more.

THE REST OF THE PICS

Looks great, the way he shaped the flames on the hood is killer! Very unique. Are you going to leave the car de-badged & de-molded?

Thanks guys for the compliments. Its hard to capture good mind-blowing pics of it cuz it works from so many angles but i'm gonna spend some more time with it soon. I'm gonna leave the doors de-badged and de-molded but i may put the ram-air decals back on the hood and i'm putting my silver vents and nostrils back on today.
