They don't look bad. It might look better if they came out of the fender vent.

You did a good job on it, but I don't like the way it looks...

His whole car is busy...LOL. He has stickers all over the back window and numbers written on the drivers side window with other decals here and there. I think he likes it that way. Personally I agree with most others about the stripe and checkers but I think it would look corny with just a flame job that doesn't come from around the front fender. You did a nice job on it though.

looks too busy, way to much going on, get rid of the checkers, the transam logo, the gold stripe, make it come out out of the side vents and lower... and it would look nice that's just my opinion, in the end, it's your car...

sorry i shouldve mentioned that, this is justa rough sketch sorta, if i were to do it, there would def. be no checkers, or stripes, and the colors, would prob be different also, i was just wondering how the flame pattern looked.

but thanks for the opinion and advice so far
