Default More pics of my ghost flames...

I have about a 15 minute timespan to photograph these things...ghost flames were meant to be seen by the human eye up close and personal. But here's a few:

The flames look good. I really like the layout on the side of the car. I would like to check those out in person. I tried to get a good look the night we all went out to eat, but I couldn't see it. Hopefully I'll catch you around some other time.

Those are some of the sweetest flames I've ever seen! You should be proud of that ride!

I've always loved ghost flames...I wish I could do them on black, but I don't know how it could be done. The only idea I have is to paint the flames with a metallic black over the standard black...

You take the best damn pictures I have ever seen! I still have some of yours from a year ago that I used as wallpaper. Very cool!

Love the flames and every time I see your car, makes me want to buy some Fikse's.

I hate those wheels yet they look mean as hell on your car. That car is the nicest T/A, IMO.

Spray the flame pattern with a pearl, then do clear top coats over that.

Thanks for the compliments. As far as ghost flames on black, i was gonna do it on my 98 Formula in purple from the same guy that did Mike Hefner's black C5...which is the baddest ghost job i've ever seen. His guy offered me a bitchin deal to do mine in the same purple, just different style flames.
Google his name and it'll turn up. His nitrous bottles are killer.
