I like it, but add some 1/4 inch body colored pinstripes a 1\4 inch from the edges.

Muddy cat prints are cool too. Try some of them.

First two pics are really old. (I have since blacked out the rear tail lights and gotten rid of that horrible exhaust)

Second two pics are from car shows last season.

The ghost work usually costs a tad more, it was actually my painter that convinced me to ghost em i originally wanted em in gloss black but liek he said stripes are just stripes, but ghost stripes give a much better "show" affect. I am real happy with em, although a heads up usually you can't get a full ghost effect without shooting them under a candy, he tried some things when he shot mine and tehy pop all the way sometimes or ghos tall the way sometimes, He was kinda shocked it happened so nice
