Ghost flame job on my 05
#1
Well, I just called the local custom paint shop, and the guy told me he could do a ghost flame job on my 05 for about $800, but he said that in order to do it properly, it would also need to be clear-coated to get rid of the edge that the flames leave on the paint. This would be a few more hundred, so that would bring my total to about $1200. Not quite as bad as I thought it would be.
Basically, to put on ghost flames they basically use the same color as the car, but add a little bit of pearl to it so that it sparkles a bit.

that would look nice... when I get my mustang in January I want to get flames similar to these but with more of a windveil blue tint instead of the solid white

My 66 got a ghost flame job last month. It's a black pearl that doesn't have a major color shift, which I like. In some light it really stands out as a pearlescent silvery grey, in other light you can barely see it.

It was a friend of a friend deal, but I got this flame job for $500 total. It's not absolutely perfect, but I surely got my moneys worth. I really don't think +/- $1,200 for a really good flame job is bad at all.

$1,200 is what I paid last summer for awsome ghost flames on my white 96 GT vert. The artist used colbot blue with majenta tips. He did outline the flames with blue pinstiping. When the sun hits them just right they POP! I know it's just looks, but man it gets plenty of attention, trophies too.
If I lern how to use this site I'll post pictures.
