Got any other pictures of that? Something looks a little funny with the flames going right over the grill.

I know those flames can be painted like that, as I've seen them done on a couple of TV shows, but there's something odd about that pic.

Looks almost PhotoShop'ed. The only way you could get flames like that over the grilles would be to have a clear cover over them and I don't see anything like that.

Yup the picture is a phony. Look at the foglights. And flames "floating" over the upper and lower grills? Somebody went to town with photoshop!

The fire's too creepy for me, reminds me of Bruiser when he caught fire.

Here is a PT Cruiser from Washington State that has some very realistic plainted flames. [8D] These start at $6,000 and go up from there! [:0]

the other explantion may be is that if you notice the hood scoop and the roll cage is that it could be a drag car so the grille and fog lights could just be vynl or painted on themselves. That just an explanation i am offering

I have seen that car. The the grill, emblem and the fog lights are not real. They are decals that have been painted over. That is Team Titans new Celica drag car for the heavily modified front wheel drive class.

Holy shoot. I went to the site where that picture of the Celica came from. It's www.airbrush.com and went into the forums where the artists talk about everything to do with airbrushing and ask questions of each other and show off their work. Some of those people are outstanding!!!
