I'm going to get some paint to match the wheels tomorrow and spray it again. Stand by for Adam's final paint color query. BTW I decided against the flames for the same reason, they'd be cool at first, but it's too blingy for a street car.
"Because that look does not comply with my design intention." But then you'll start sounding like me, and nobody wants that.

As for flames, is there really such a thing as too much bling? I personally think a stripe and flames doesn't work because they don't play nice as design elements. Your attention gets distracted between the two. I actually prefer subtle ghost flames to a stripe. You have to be very careful with a stripe on a C3 IMO. Personally I don't think it works so well with an 80-82 style hood because the straight line of the stripe interferes with the very nice line in the Cowl.
