In Houston, I highly recommend X-Air, 832-567-7766. He is the the official paint shop for Harley Davidson of Houston. Here are some flames he did on my mustang. My Mustang had a true flame job done on it. Here is a pic of my car and my friend fun4all's camaro, both done by X-Air but you can see they are different style of flames.

Ballpark #'s?

What is this costing you guys?

I do like the ghost flames on Garrets vette, and the flames on that mustang are pretty sick as well.
