ok i have a wendsday delievery of my cervinis ram hood...
ive decided to get the stock flames airbrushed on instead of reapplying the stock decal...

yep...big decision...im going with dupont CHROMALUSION in a purefire prizm color...it looks very similar to the color we have stock but when you change angles it goes to a orange-gold.

the guy who does the art work is the big kahuna here on surfboards and custom show cars...so im very excited...

what do you guys think...anybody see this paint on a gray vehicle
i have a week to change my mind

 

Sounds cool, Keeper15. You will have to post some pics when you get it done.

Guess we won't see you this Saturday in Pleasanton, huh?

 

sounds awsome! definately post pics and good luck with everything. don't forget to either bake the cervini's hood, or have it on the truck for 5 days in the sun. So are the flames going to be the same pattern as stock? Maybe if he has some extra paint have him do a HD graphic on the tonneau if you have one or the taillgate?
cant wait to see how it looks. it sounds awsome

 

BillP...my pretty truck you helped me get from Hayward Ford is in the shop till after thanksgiving...



Harley#356...ive got the painter doing the flames in the same manner as the stock decal was.

he says i wont see a difference in shape,just the extra color prism effect...im doing research to get an idea how this will look on the shadow gray...im thinking it will be awesome...

maybe a touch of the colored flames accenting the tailgate,or ram air inlet...im not sure about that yet...

so far im in to 1500.00 on the custom paint and hood..

 

and no cheap edge from the pinstripe to collect wax and turn white so you can really tell its a decal. don't know why ford went with stick on flames. i would have rather of payed more and gotten the flames painted on if it were an option. thinking about taking my 3mm single pinstripe off and getting it painted on. looks too plain without a pinstripe of some sort, and the emblem looks too far down on the fender without it i think.

can't wait to see how it looks!

 

I also am very excited. I don't think I have see any pictures of an HD with painted stripes on. At least we got someone willing to take the risk. Be sure to take LOTS of pics at every angle so we can get an idea of what it looks like. I am sure it will look much better in person.

 

I've been contemplating this for some time now, but don't have the scratch to get it done. I was quoted $1500-$1800 for flames and the hood as well! Maybe tax time next year!

Please post pics when you get it! I'm very anxious to see what it looks like.

I have been toying with widening the flames a bit in the back and possibly painting the tonneau (when I get it).

 

i hate to be the first at anything....really,but i had no choice..


now i have a new ram hood,flames that are not stock,they even change color im told...

damn tree!!!!

well if i have any money left i will take photos,lots of them...

cant wait for turkey day...after that its fix my truck...please
