Sorry, don't like it, not my style.

If you like it, more power to ya.

However, I think some darker silver ghost flames would look sweet instead of that.

Chow,
Ummm, not exactly what I would have done, but if you like it, well... :rolleyes:

Seriously, I'll await seeing it in person sometime whenever we have a chance to meet.

I'm moving back to San Diego at the end of this week. I'll be spending a couple of days in Las Vegas with my girlfriend's uncle, then we should be arriving in SD sometime the following week.

Once we get settled in, I'll try to make some of the local car shows that are still left on the calendar for this year.

Perhaps you & I will run into each other at one of them.

I'm diggin it. Big decision in getting custom work like that done. The blue splashes almost have a chromalusion type effect to them. I can appreciate what u've done as my SVT is getting painted a new color as I type this. Your current wheels are cool but with the right set of rims, it could really set your off new paint. much props tho

I did not want to do flames cause its been doen too many times and had few thoughts in my mind to make it diffrent. The more I look at it, the I feel its a "Love it or Hate it" paint job.....
Well thanks for the input and keep it comming laugh

Awesome color...but the raindrops are a little cartoonish IMHO. I think it would have been cooler if it were rip curls or something a little more aggressive. However I do like the fact that you went for something original instead of the plain ole, played out flames. Maybe not my choice....but pretty decent overall.

Hope you like it....cause I betcha you couldn't get rid of it now if you wanted to.

I think it's going to look cool, but I betcha the cops won't take to kindly to ya...you're gonna stick out like a sore thumb.

I dunno....have to see it when its finished.

Gotta give you credit it takes some meatballs to decide on something so unique. It is very well done and the blue color is Breathtaking in the pic.. Im sure in real life it is even better. But the Shaved doors is cool MONEY cool .. I can't wait to see when its done. Great job!


the best part of owning a SVT??
