Purple Flames/accents

I have a silver 05, and would like to sport some of my school's colors (TCU)

I was thinking about purple flames or accents, but I am VERY leary of making a mod that could potentaily make the car look ghey.

So I was wondering if anyone had seen a silver with purple accents or had pics of it or even concept art of it to help me make my decision.

Do NOT do it. Photochop the flames on your car, print and then throw it in the trash.

LOL,
So apparently people feel pretty strongly about not having flames on the 8...
Thou to be fair I wasnt planning on going crazy with them like the blue one posted above....

So no here thinks purple accents like dotted lines would be a good match for a silver car? I've seen broken lines something like"--------" on cars before that didnt look so bad on the 8 in car shows (saw a good looking silver one in the girls and 8's) thread.

Ghost flames would be nice if they are subtle enough. If I had the cash I would have them on mine. The key is finding a good shop to do them.

One day, somewhere, there will be a forum that will allow you to mod threads that you create. Imagine the death of all trolls and flamers in one fell swoop.

I think there are several products that let you "paint" stuff on your car and then wash it off later. Check your local autozone, and put a nice fresh coat of wax on your car before using. With that stuff you could try all kinds of things until you found something you liked.

Flames on a car just doesnt look right, why do you want your car to look like its burning? its almost like your enging caught fire or something.
