everyone has different tastes... been around for the last 5-7 years through mini trucks. they tend to be a good 4-5 years ahead of muscle cars with upgrades and paintschemes as it is. anyhow here is one... or a few for you.

What makes those "Tribal"? They just look like different flames. I thought the tribal look had the sharp edges and looked more like this.

I suppose mine are tribal, they are styled more like regular flames with extra flames that "cut back". But i do call them tribal ghost flames.
Heres a few more pics
Mine in the background at Super Chevy, flames standing out nice here

Car: too many ...
I think tribal designs are nice. I've considered the idea, but I'm more of a fan of solid colors. I think they look great on the right car/truck with the right design and colors.

edit: August 26-28, 2005 is the 2005 trans am nationals. Hasn't happended yet. This car was in some other big 2005 car show. (85-90 front bumper)
