I have a NBM Bird. I really like the 30th anniversary style racing stripes. but i want flames on my car too. Would these flames bee too much with the racing stripes? What about the 30th stripes and the Bir dof prey decal?

I dunno.....I can kind of see it, but its nothing I would do personally. I think in this case, to stand out and yet not be TOO over the top, Id do the Bird of Prey.

Not rice exactly, but refried rice. Add some fake bullet holes and your set.

Get your life together, you're embarassing yourself!!! All those decals are the gayest sh*t since sliced bread! I take that back; nobody, not even gay people, deserve to be associated with such a lame and overboard sticker combination. Please don't waste your money on vinyl decals... if you want pretty stickers on your car, at least buy a K&N and proudly display that you "filter charged" your car(at least those stickers add a couple hp!)

To the guy above you are little harsh and sliced bread is far from gay. To the original poster think about the three designs in question all seem to be busy and in your face and should no be combined. Then to go over each individually the bird of prey is okay but its a little busy. The flames are on an import and cheesy. The 30th stripes are okay but a little better then your other options. Really think about how it would really look and ask yourself if you would like it 6 months from now. Also in the future when asking opinions be prepared for ideas as well as crticisms.
