Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Default Flames : YEA or NAY?

Alright so I made a simple little flame template and used some temporary paint to get a rough idea what it might look like.

What do you all think?

The actual product will probably be vinyl so that if it gets scratched i can just put a new one on.

Also here is a video clip of them. " RIGHT CLICK AND SAVE AS "







Yes i know there are a few smudges and missing things that's because it just wipes off and has been touched a couple times. lol

Looks good

If it were me I think I would drag the frames a little further
You thinking of painting the flames that dark?
I've always liked the ghost flames

Ghost is good, but I think the black really works on the silver. Just my pso, but I've always been a sucker for a good flame job.

It gets costly replacing the vynal that size unless you are making you own. I would assume 100 dollars a pop. How often do you offroad?

This is a good point...

But I think I like the look. It would differentiate your JK!
