Default tC with Chrome flames on windows...

Hi there,
Just thought I'd share a pic of the new vinyl decals I put on the windows of my tC. I also have smoked vinyl overlays on my sidemarkers and sideview mirrror signals. Guess my car likes to wear vinyl as much as I do! Lol. If you don't like it, that's cool, I understand that not everyone will. Here's a pic:

dont like, but as long as you like it then its all good

Im in the sign business and those flames are going to get scratched in time with you rolling your windows up and down, Why didnt you just made the flames with your tint?

Yeah, I realized that they would get scratched but I don't roll down my windows that often so hopefully, they won't get messed up too quickly :-). I didn't know that you could get flames made into the tint but I guess it is too late anyway since my windows are already tinted. -Jayme

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I guess I should have waited longer before posting the thread as the flames didn't last more than a few hours on my car. I still think that subtle flames look very hot (no pun intended) on certain cars like big black trucks, just not tCs. Oh well, it was an interesting experiment. Now, onto find a better way to distinguish my car from the other tCs...:-). Later, Jayme

We all wish. Do you not have anything better to do than flame on people little man? What makes the world great is everyone can do what they like and it doesn't matter what other "idiots" think. And if you disagree, then post of pics of your box...probably stock...and let us rip on it.

I hate to see people flame on others, especially when the others are girls.

Rip Away... 1 1/2 inch drop, titanium colored 17" rims, TYC Tails, a few other items i'm sure i just forgot to list...
i just added the carbon-fiber gas cover, the fat boy shift ***, just added the TRD Exhaust (not in picture) and the AVM Intake as well..... about as stock as they get eh cowboy?
edit: judging by your profile, i've got a hell of alot more put into my box than you do into yours. So I would not talk if i were you tex. On a side note, i know your'e stuck out in BFE in the middle of Texas and all, but out here in california, in the "big city" as you might call it, flames on cars are EVERYWHERE and about as annoying of a mod on a car as you can get. Theyre over-done, over-trendy, and they dont look good on anything except hot rods and choppers, I dont like em, so deal with it.

Call me Tex all you want...but I draw the line at cowboy. I travel all over the world with my job and everyone has their stereotypes of how Texas is. We don't all live on ranches and farms, we don't ride around on horses and wagons, we don't all own tractors and pickups. I've been in the car customizing scene way longer than you have newbie and yes flames are everywhere, but you don't have to rip on people b/c of their personal preference. But since we're discussing mods that are "over-done" how about those TYC tails that are on enough cars that people think they're stock? And don't judge my ride from my profile, that was last updated 2 months after I bought my car.

Everything's bigger and better in Texas _____. We do things right.
