That is the attitude we should all have. To each his own.. I can't wait to see the flames though.

Hey man we all have our big mouths sorry i will speak for only myself I am opinionated and well it's your truck and from the sounds and looks of things you are not cash strapped so if the flames don't light your fire, go back to black you know what they say about black LOL.

I think I would go for the ghost flames myself. Too bad you can't have it done and if you didn't like it they would do it the other way (red/orange). I guess they wouldn't be in business very long operating like that though.

I admire you for doing all the mods you have done thus far. My question is will you ever be done modding?

Ah the modding NEVER ends, its a really really bad addiction... and personally I love it

As for the flames, if you go with the older looking hot rod flames its gonna look good, if you go with ghost flames its gonna look good. Either way, as long as they are not in a straight line like the first pic posted was, its gonna look good. Good luck and I cant wait to see some pics of it finished.

its not HARD to do.. you just gota pay for it.

i would take it to a reputable shop and ask them about it. They are gonna talk about "blending" it... im not sure on the cost because different regions have different prices due to enviromentla laws and other things.. even shop to shop will vary

you just gotta ask yourself... how much is it worth to ya?
