Default Flame job

Do you guys know of anyone that does hood flames either airbrushed or decals...preferably decals that look good and profissional. I'm not looking for huge flames I'm looking for something kind of subtle on the hood.

Thanks,
Cam

Don't do flames! That is the MOST overdone and boring accent known to Man! Besides, flames is a Hot Rod thing, not a muscle car thing, especially for modern day muscle car. Be originial and think of another cool accent.

um no, I am doing the flames because i think they look good, and I don't really care if they started on hot rods, I mean z06 rims started on corvettes but we still put them on t/a's and camaros because it looks good and so do flames

Thats so stupid. Your a dumb a** for wanting that crap on your car.
I'm just kidding. I was trying to give you a flame job. Haha.

Seriously though. Put what you like on your car. Your the only one that has to like it. I think flames look great when done right.

Nasty thanks for the comment. Flames certainly arent for everyone. Some people think they only belong on certain cars and some just dont like them at all. Me personally I like a real clean looking car thats all shaved of molding and badges and nothing over the top just like the next guy. However when I painted my hood I wanted the opposite look, I wanted something that was going to grab someones attention. I could have done it with some pink unicorns coming out of the ram air but instead I chose the next best thing....fire. There are no laws to how you customize your car just opinions, but I say if you like it then go for it, just know there will always be someone who doesnt like it.
