I say no to the flames unless it's a ghost pattern
My thoughts exactly. If you really want them, do them this way.
 
Forget flames... just get a whole ton of stickers for car parts you don't have and plaster all up and down the side of your car, the hood, everywhere. That's what a real racer does ;)

Dude, paint the hood, PLEASE
ditto. i see your car chas and i think hotwheels you know those color changing cars.

CF hood would not flow at all and serve no purpose.
 
lol. the graphic on my car was supposed to be 'ghosted' guess he didnt get what I was talking about. When I went to see it I was like OMG I like this better :D
 
if you're going to do flames, do color changing flames. red->orange->yellow, so under some light you can't see them at all, but then under others you'll be able to see them or parts of them. people will never know if there are flames there or they're just seeing things

Flames aren't right for most cars, but I for one think Jo's car looks great. (thumb) As she said, it's your car...do what you want.
 
thx guys (well at least i think you're all guys)

anyway i'd much rather do a "black on top" paint job (like in my sig)....if it has a name, i don't know it, so that's the only way i can describe it....my 15-yr old nephew-in-law is extremely talented when it comes to painting...i know...a 15 year old??? but, he's sooooooo talented...anyway, i'll probably get him to do something to my car...he painted a guy's truck that was black on top, red on bottom with a custom tribal division....hard to describe, but it looked awesome....too bad the guy totaled his truck a few months later

so what do y'all think about the black on top scheme? how should it be divided? just a straight line?

oh, and btw, i looked around the internet at other cars w/flames and they do look pretty gay for the most part....don't want to screw up the p5!!!!
 
best flames I've ever seen on a car were on Ian Ziering's 68 Camaro on "Overhaulin'" on TLC.

But then again, flames normally only look good on older muscle cars.
 
im doing tribal flames on a mazda 3..every one is so con about it....ricer this ricer that...i say go flames but not old school flames
 
haha that's Ian Ziering.. I think he was on 90210 or one of those gay shows from back in the day.. he looks like a dumbass cause he had no idea they were doing this to his car and this is when he first saw it..

I'd look like a dumbass too if someone totally hooked up my Protege for me. :)
