I don't understand why folks have flames painted on ANYTHING that is so ??? opposite? of what a sane person would think of when the word FAST is shouted. A Monte Carlo? Maybe, a Malibu?
And when I see on these sitting on the back of a used car lot, I wonder, "how long did the previous owner kick himself in the butt for having that resale value killing paint job?"

Those aren't flames and those aren't painted.
What we have there is some Jin-You-Whine tribal flame vinyl graphics.
That is hillbilly awesome, y'all.

I also love how they match the blue spoiler, and how they tastefully clash in a horrible way with the old lady paint color.

That generation Chevy Malibu- worst car in history. Let's see, how do I make it worse?
Oh, nevermind, the person who's car that is has already done it for me.

You know, I totally support modding your car however you want.
But I've just always wondered what person think slapping a $10 flame decal on their car makes it look better.

it's the same reason some people spend a lot of money on clothes that look like they were found in the bargain bin at the Salvation Army..
it's also the same reason i have a badge on the back of my formerly V6 and soon to be LT1 powered Camaro that says "RICE".
that reaason is "irony".

Whoa whoa whoa, are you saying they purposely do it to look tacky? That I cold kind of understand. Taking a crappy car, and just doing it up as goofy as possible. But I think these people honestly think that $10 flame job looks awesome.

Maybe painting the plastic hub caps the same color as the tribal flames would soften it up a bit.
