LOL!!! OK Well Silver on Silver would be higly subtle. Almost so that it may not even be worth it... Bring her out to the East Cost & we'll give it a go! But why would you want to curse your 8 twice?

I think it would be cool to see a silver start off with the titanium silver color and fade back in to the silver. But the ghost style flames would be awesome too. I would like to see someone in a black 8 do silver flames across the front of the car like vice's.

I saw Vice^Grip's flame car at a revent meet, and all i can say is DAMN it looked hot. The covers were beautiful as well. If you can do silver on a black car, (the car itself) i think it would look great. Also, silver, on silver isnt a bad idea.

that looks pretty cool, great work vice. Kinda like Mike Levallee if anyone knows who he is. Very cool stuff.

Vice, do you do any other type of painting on the covers, I am not much int othe flames on my car, but one day might consider something else.

The flames are awsome, You cannot further jinx the silver so silver on silver would be awsome as well. Silver is definatly jinxed, I have had my eight for 1 year and I am now on my second insurance clame cause other drivers keep dinging my car. Gotta keep the car dent and scratch free.

i sent the guy a pm but i guess he wasnt serious.....as far as i know kenny doesnt airbrush but has done a bunch of our covers (i will just cut and paste the pm) .....here are some examples

he has done mine








klepto's



http://www.cardomain.com/ride/228610

snipaz2420's



https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-multimedia-photo-gallery-6/my-8-now-kenny-minor-surgery-145383/page4/

sebarx8's



http://gs250.photobucket.com/groups/...A42U1/?start=0


these are just a few examples of his work......he has done over a dozen sets so far and my new ones i will be picking up this afternoon for my new car......they are color matched perfectly to what ever color code you choose, and are primed, painted, and cleared...i had mine over 2 years and it lasted just fine with the heat of the engine bay.....he charges 250-275 for the big center cover (depending on how difficult or multiple stage or trick paint) and 75 for the smaller ones

here is the thread in the good guy section for all the 8's and 7's that have had work done
