Im not the biggest in flames, but I've always liked a ghost effect on the flames. Maybe some Z28 racing stripes down the middle with ghost flames?
Flames and Stripes? I don't know. Id love to see a picture of that. don't know if that would look good or if it would be overkill. I look to see if i can find one, if anybody has a pic post it please, now i'm curious

I say white fading to yellow and then red with a complimentary colored pinstripe on the outer edge of them.

I would def say silver flames, I am plannin on going Orange and Silver 2 tone with mine, So I think silver flames with either light grren or medium blue tips would look sick
