by the way, anyone know how ghost flames work besides the illusion effect....does the whole front end have to be repainted a slightly different color or do the flames get painted on and blend the same color together???

Dude, the first pic looked like someone took a dirty *** car, drew an outline of some flames and cleaned the bottom half off.

Pretty cool

Ya sorry bro but flames were out of style about 10 years ago. YUCK! But if you like it then go for it. Don't expect a lot of respect from it though.

please don't. there is no need for a second thread about it.


as for the cost, i suggest the OP check his local paint shops and inquire them how much it will cost to get it done. they will be the best ones to answer his question
