Some pics of my ghost work

The other day when i had it on the rink, got a few of my stripes popping in the pics. Sorry everyone i couldnt get my fender hashes to pop real visible, but did get the cowl induction to pop and my center stripes. So here ya go,

Center stripe touches everything from under the front gfx to under the back, grand sport style, Stripes are bright silver metallic with green/blue pearl. He told me we couldnt get a "full ghost" effect without shooting under a candy. He mixed in a little of the teal paint into the stripe color and we ended up with a full ghost. Definately the only one in colorado

Roof stripe

wow, awesome ghost stripe! I'm even more impressed with the "Cowl Induction" being in ghost. My bird is being painted platinum (engine compartment done, rest of car will wait a year or so), and I'm wondering if I can get a similar effect with a ghost hood bird. I'm not sure if it'll work well with the really heavy metallic flake in my paint.
