Hey heads!
Heres a truck I just finished up for a buddy of mine. I used color change avery film purple/green avery amethist metallic and avery white. The flames give off a really cool ghost flame look at certain distances and angles. I was real impressed with the color change film! It conforms very well and is a blast to work with! Im also posting my new interior.

Looks good Ryan, needs some airbrushing though. [Smile] Way to stand behind your price! Is that design a one-off original or is it something you'd sell on a regular basis - that could factor into the price as well.

actually Ryan the initial cost of vinyl graphics does not even come into mind with a properly painted and striped graphics job. Maybe for those seriously confused little boys with their thumper systems where respect never enters their pea brains won't complain when the wax gets caught up at the edges and its life span dwindles from the first day its applied.
If this sounds a little too harsh, its time for a reality check.

Ha ha no doubt joey! I know most of the guys on the forum are just young guys lookin to get what they can for free ha ha. I know it would probably have looked better with paint, but my facilities are limited and i dont have proper equipment anymore, so I pretty much just stick to vinyl. It still came out pretty mean lookin' though. I was impressed with it.

Mike, I hand drew the design , it was all custom. So that factored in as well. Speaking of those tribal flames you drew were AWESOME that you posted on here last week! (the ones on the gas tank) I can never get my tribal flames to come out as perfect as that. GOOD JOB! Maybe we can trade some flames sometime! [Smile]

Hey cheryl what kind of rims did ya get?
Ive got 18"x8 eagle alloy 212 coming tomorrow for my truck with khumo low profile tires! I just started selling the rims for eagle we've got some awesome styles and theyre reasonably priced too!

Ryan, thanks for the props on the flames. Those actually came straight from my collection of custom hand-drawn designs, which is now up to 35 designs... some are cool, some are duds, ironically they all sell pretty dang well for me. [Smile] Check 'em out.. I have some new pages goin up on my site but arent accessible via public links yet as Im also redesigning the interfaces and navigation..

Here's the link: Insert Line of BS Here

Ryan....I got Focal all chrome rims. I also got 17" low profiles, as the 18" would have been too big for my little Celica...because I may lower it.
I will post a pic soon.

Hey Mike.....that little smiley with the hearts is a trip! How'd ya do that??? [Cool]

Cheryl, it's a smiley that's available on one of the other boards I frequent that's dedicated to Ford Rangers, and I happened to use it recently on that board so I jumped over there right quick and grabbed the URL to the image: http://www.theunholytrinity.org/cracks_smileys/otn/love/1luvu.gif

Then I inserted the URL in the image tag on my post here.
[Smile]

Hey Cheryl, If you lower it, I suggest using gold line coil overs. The new ajustable ones. We just put a set on a cavalier for a customer they work GREAT!

www.speedpeople.com Sells them. Check the site out ... they have lots of import goodies!

Cool Ryan! funny thing is.....I love rims as much as I like fonts. I can't get enough of 'em.....
 
Posted by Mike Pipes (Member # 1573) on :
 
I'm havin a tough time finding rims I like, and given the shear number of rims that are available, it's amazing I havent found anything that really trips my trigger.. I've even considered calling Boyd Coddington or Chip Foose to see about having some wheels cut with my own design.. pricey.. but.. if it's the only way I can be happy with my wheels, so be it. [Smile]
