Default Couple More True Fire

The car still hasnt been washed, actually it was pressure washed and driven home and straight to the garage. But I know that the clear is still kinda soft and has about a month to be fully hard. Anyway, what do you think?

I'm not big on flames, but that car is amazing. With a more unique rim (iforged, fikse, or hre's) it would be perfect.

Looks badass man. I'd hate to see how much that would cost. I wonder if that could be done in black and grey for a brighter colored car IE SOM?

I agree completely. I need some new rims and to repaint the calipers.

I like it, but I do have one problem.....

I think the flames should protrude from the REAR wheels instead of the front. After all, it is a RWD car, and that's where all the smoke comes from...doesn't it?

Agreed, from time to time there might be a small quantity of smoke coming from the rear tires.

looks great! I love the way hood looks. I have idea what if you painted the calipers and SS emblems on the grill and back a shade of orange that is in the flames? Either way the car looks badass.
