    oh man, that is freaking killer! paneled flames on the trunk, color matched seat inserts...Wonder how many hours they have in just laying the color down on the roof alone...bad ass man.

    edit...hold the phone...is that roof vinyl? looking at the termination point on the a-pillar...looks raised? if it is, its pretty slick.

      Paint jobs like that are the graphic definition of patience.
      There's always something new to learn.

        It's all paint! Those guys out of Bakersfield (Loco Banditos) are legendary for mixing panels/scallops/flames/mix matched colors and making it "work".

            I can dig it, that takes some serious patience and skill, I know how long it took just to lay down a good straight line to black out my hood...but repearing that over and over, and balancing the flames, layer after layer of paint and flake, lace and jebus knows what else...then gobs of clear... I dont dig all low riders but ones like this, man...even I would roll it. I love this style of paint...should be in an art museum.

                        Might just be the angle of the middle photo, but it looks like a bigger tire/wheel than would go on the that ride. Yep, must be a plasma generating quantum unit for sure. Can't be a spare tire for that car...not with these eyes.
