Being from Ohio and a Cleveland Browns fan, I'd say brown goes with orange. As for what you're doing, I'd have to go with the Purple Flames. Just my $.02

ChevLoRay · 08-11-2002, 08:11 AM

With the fall coming, and Halloween, what about some GREEN flames? Be different, huh?

weasel29gm · 08-11-2002, 08:55 AM

Hey 71, go with a silver or purple ghost or a combo of both. A red white or yellow pattern I think would clash with the orange IMO.

justin · 08-11-2002, 09:25 AM

I agree, silver flames over orange would be sweet!
But I am a silver kind of guy. Good luck

Silver Black flip flop is a good choice for ORANGE .
The silver or a purple would also be cool.

Tink · 08-11-2002, 10:26 AM

I think purple and orange is a pretty good combo.

*big71* · 08-11-2002, 11:22 AM

Slightly darker ghost flames would be something you would not grow tired of later and would look great.

**chevy71super** · 08-11-2002, 10:15 PM

How about green flames??? Check this sweet coupe out.

*big71* · 08-11-2002, 10:20 PM

thanks

aspegren70 · 08-11-2002, 10:32 PM

black flames with whit or yellow, or silver tips would be cool, and make it stick out a little more

71Blazer · 08-12-2002, 01:48 AM

I'm partial to ghost flames with accented (darker orange, red, or even yellow) tips.

I've been kickin' around the idea of gold ghost flames w/ burnt orange tips over the original med. olive on the blazer... course it looks much better in my mind than it does in this post

*big71* · 08-12-2002, 07:08 AM

cool

70c10 · 08-12-2002, 07:59 AM

Big 71,
A little darker Orange pearl would look good. I saw a coupe this weekend with Cool Ghost flames that were faded from the outside edges inward. I just had my truck done in Ghost flames and they came out nice. Keep us posted!
