Rep Power: 0 If you have photoshop you can play with flames and other designs. I am waiting for a coworker to get back from vacation with his laptop. I have put flames on and chopped and channeled my car in photoshop. If you have it play with it if you don't email me dustin@castleusa.com and when he gets back we can play with your ideas.

i dont know much about paint, but isnt there different transparencys? or thickness or somethin...? Osofast2001 has a really cool flame paint job on his car, http://www.pbase.com/nemesys6/inbox&page=2 (Get the paint thinner or somethin to make it see-throughish)
but you can really see it... I think it looks cool, but what other design were u thinkin of getting?

Rep Power: 0 im not really sure what kind of design i want to do...im thinkin maybe tribal or whatever design i think looks pretty cool...the reason y i am choosing ghost instead of regular decal..is cuz it looks hella trippy...and not too many imports i think have them

Rep Power: 267 Yes. It has to be done with an imager that can melt colors together. It would be like a picture. BUT it will not look good up close.
its workable i hope, perhaps another shade of gray?
