That looks good.

How much does something like that cost?

To have someone lay the flames, it might be about 30-40 bucks, if that. It takes lots of time to tape up the bottle right. I would guess about $150-175 paint and labor. It might be a little more. Inside the flame, is done with 3 coats of white pearl, over the same silver which is a silver from a newer Audi A4.

Is this NHRA legal for track use? I have always wondered if you can take the sticker off, or is the information stamped into the bottle that they need?
All bottles must be securely mounted, stamped with minimum DOT 1800 pound rating, and identified as nitrous oxide. Nitrous oxide bottle(s) located in the driver compartment must be equipped with a relief valve and vented outside the compartment.

Anyway, very nice!

Looks good, I like! Very similar to the 2 20lb'ers that were in the lightning.

If you notice at the base of the bracket there are two holes on each side, you just bolt it to the floor pan or whatever you are mounting it too
