Im about to get my black WS6 repainted and i was thinking of getting a "Ghost" TA Bird on the hood rather it be airbrushed then cleared or maybe a decal then cleared..... Im no paint and body guy and this is simply an idea.. Has anyone done this or seen this?? And what are your opinions on this idea??

Seen it on a 79 firebird at a local car show here. Looked bitchin. Actaully looking at the car straight on i didnt even see it, my wife caught it and pointed it out to me.

I bet that did look good... The only thing that concerns me is the ram air hood isnt flat and it night look awkward running across the scoops.

I've always wanted to do the mecham bird. Always liked for some reason.

A ghost bird would look badass if done right. Great idea

Just don't go cheap if you get it done. Do it right

So what do you guys think would be the better route?? Decal or airbrush??

I vote decal so in case it looks funny or it grows old it is simple to rip it off. Painting your stuck with it

how you gonna do a "ghost" effect with vinyl?

Hmmm good question.... However you could do a really dark grey metallic look maybe

Ive seen one of the local decal shops here do ghost stuff on vehicles(flames and stripes). As long as they could match the color of the car then just tweak the color that little bit for the ghost effect i dont know why it wouldnt work. Hell you could probably have them just match the color exactly then lay the decal on and have close to the effect just because of the decal being on top with the layer effect.

Any chance you got a picture of the ghost bird you could share?

Dang! That's exactly what I want.. Just need it with black

Eventually decals will crack and start to peel off. Airbrushing would last forever and allow you to get the ghost look you want. The question is finding a good airbrusher.

Flash ws6 has a ghost bird on his hood, looks great. Kind of hard to get pictures showing it off, just going off his facebook page.
