I think the flames look alright. Keep them darker and not red and it'll be alright.

i don't really like flames on any car, but i will say at least they aren't bright orange or bright red and gaudy.

I think it looks great! I love ghost flames, and flames that are just barely different than the paint. I cant wait to see it. Good job!

dude, you NEED a drop in such a major way. holy hell those are some gaps you've got!

okay now back to the car. i love the paint job and how the flames came out. from the earlier pictures, i thought the car was a lighter color, didnt think it was black at all. (but i still liked it) but i really like how it looks. good job

now go buy some lowering springs now

It started off as Chrysler PXR, but while we were making it we realized that we were low on the blue tint required. So its PXR minus the blue tint. In comparison to PXR its a little bit more of a charcoal than a pure black metallic. The flames are just some straight pearls mixed up.
