Janell and I are considering some changes to the Bee, removing all the matt black decals on the car and having a ghost flame job done on the front wrapping down the sides to mid car, a deeper shade of B5 blue mixed with faded white perhapse. Then having the whole car cleared with a candy clearcoat. Any info on a really really good paint shop that can show prior work with customer references would be greatly appreciated.

My body shop guy down here in Provo. He should be able to do it. He does a lot of great work with high end cars and he is the only guy I trust with my car.

Cool thnx Ben pm me his # and I'll give him a call.
I plan on keeping the Super Bee Icon on the car but the rear stripe will be gone but the flaming ghost Bee will be there and a ghost flame 824 where the trunk black out is centered will be added and a flaming ghost bee on the lower right corner of the trunk, then inside of the hood will have the liner gone and ghost flames rising up from low to high end. Should make for a nice presentation.

Not sure if what i have in mind really qualifies as ghost flames, but this is a 99% image of what I'm after. I guess by Ghost I ment not red and orange yellow ect. lol whoi knows what I'm thinking  I sure dont, I dont know how she tolerates me  |

That'll look sweet if you can incorporate the bee into your theme. I wonder what some honeycomb cells in ghost would look like at the very beginning of the flame?

I'm not a flame fan as I think it has been overdone but if you could do something unique with honeycombs or beehives or something beeish. When I talked to Kindigit about the design for my car I told him no flames and he mentioned he would have talked me out of any flame design. Just something to think about... |

I have to agree, I talked to a few paint guys today and we spent some time going over ideas and the flame ghost or not has been done and done and done so I'm going to pass on it. The prevailing Idea was to essentialy keep the look the same. The changes would be to have the black vinyl removed and have a similar design to them painted on after the B5 blue recieves a candy clear coat. Reguardless if I have this done over the winter or not, I am going to have a mural done on the inside of the hood and trunk. Thanx for all the feedback.
