It does give a "mean" look when done right.

It doesn't really matter what YOU think of it. As long as the owner likes it, that's all that matters. To each their own. I personally thinks it looks quite good! As a matter of fact, I'm thinking of doing it to my truck!

I like it, where did you get the vinyl? I also have flame red and would like to play around with something similar but a little different.
