Default Badges, Badges, we don't need no stickin badges

Or chrome trim, or anything else held on with tape.





I am going to take it in tomorrow to see about having some vinyl flames put on it. A friend owns a vinyl graphics shop and has been wanting to do something to one of the vehicles I own.

I am thinking maroon over black flames.

Sorry for the crummy pictures, taken after I got through tonight.

Here is a pic from before

I don't really think any flames can look good man.

I can get the graphics for free, or pay to get the front repainted from the wife going through the fence. Seems like an easy descition to me.


Not everybody likes flames, I know that. But I do!

Just depends on what it looks like, as to what we go with.

I am also going to have the rear most side windows coved with something. Haven't descide with what though.

Truck looks good without the badges. I think some white or silver ghost flames would look great. Who cares if some people dont like the flames,ITS YOUR TRUCK.
