Has anyone done any custom paint jobs with flames on their Camaro?

I found this one, it may be from the Temple area in Texas (based on some landmarks)... hope they don't mind me posting these..

Those flames add around 40 HP.

I just hope the stripes on the hood aren't the Vinyl decals, but painted on instead. Imagine if your decals came off and the flames were painted on over it?
Also, I like flame paint jobs that look like actual fire instead of the old fashioned traditional flames. Having said all of that, I still think it looks nice on this car.

I have a IOM 2SS, I put ghost flames the same color as the goldish metallic that is in the orange basecoat. I only painted the flames on the hood "scoop". Don't facepalm me because I didn't post a pic, I am technology challenged.

flames can look cool BUT they have to be done right and most of them aren't. some1 on here has a red jewel camaro with ghosted flames i think, that look rly nice.

As for flames, realistic ones usually look cool on a black car. I really have no problem with flames - it's a classic hot rod aesthetic mod, which means I love it by default. |

Flames over stripes... fashion faux pas maximus. That's like paisley pants and plaid shirt. I'd like some blue ghost flames on my IBM. I do like the look but the silver stripes would come off before the flames went on.

Realistic flames of fire would look good.
