I just wonder if it's possible to achieve that knid of subtle detail (as I've seen in Tru-Fire jobs) on an area that small. I'd really like to see an actual attempt.

Hmm. I don't know if I'm a fan or not. I like the idea, but I don't think I like the colors because I'm a big fan of the subtle black/red in the rear. I think maybe if you did a true fire design, but maybe in black/red it'd look hot (no pun intended).

I also like the blank filler. One of my best appearance mods was removing that damn thing, but then again mine was faded to pink in some areas.

Just my .02 bro.

It seems like too small an area for a good effect.

Yes, but more than enough to tie in the effect from the one on the hood.
