Default Flame Decals on Magnetic Black

I was just curious, who thinks a red/yellow flame set up of decals on a black 350Z would like nice?

I am thinking the flames would start around the wheel wells and go across to about the door handle. Then there would also be flames on the hood, but I'm not really sure on the design and layout yet.

Just curious as to the thought of flames in general. Thanks...

Flames on a Z LOL?? I know you're not serious and you're just really bored but I mean really man.

Decals or airbrushed flames, your car will look the the preppy guys Porsche from the Tom Hanks movie "Bachelor Party" after they made it into a low rider.

Wish I could find a pic of it to post but no time...

IMO flames are more reserved for domestics. With the exception of...and I think we all agree...the realistic airbrushed flames. Its just that there are only a handful of painters who can do that work and its pretty pricey. Personally I went with this.... (in baby blue pearly to create the "ghost" effect)

I had an 03 dodge ram done up with flames and speaking of Lavallee...I had my graphics guy copy his ram's head breaking through metal design on my tailgate.
