I'm not a huge fan of flames, but I'll say this:
1) From the side the paint scheme looks pretty good. 2) Not sure if you're finished with the painting, but inorder to get the black hood and front bumper to tie-in with the rest of the car, you should paint the roof, trunk lid and rear bumper black as well. -Chike

Beautiful job, just not my taste.
Very sharp though. Enjoy Jonathan

If your talking about the one on the side by the window, they're US (and Canada?) only. As for the car... like others said, paint the front bumper red. |

Nice work
I think it looks good, definently need to go with a red bumper and fade the trunk lid from red into black. That would be my 2 cts.
Looks good though.

I'm not a fan but if you black out the trunk deck lid and roof the scheme should flow better.
... Think I would red up the front bumper too, or at least the sides so it flows with the fender.

It looks pretty good. It looks beautiful.
Maybe it's "too hot" for my taste.

I like the way the flames are done on the side but I don't care for the black bumper, hood, or wing. Nice in concept but not in execution. Don't like the abrupt changes from black to red nor the way the flames change from smoke on the hood to abrupt red/orange on the fender. Sorry but it's just my opinion.

Carry a fire exinguisher.
I'm not a fan of flames, but it does look very trick.
