Default need your opinions - paint job

Guys,
Having ColorMania do the paint for my FXDX. I want skulls on the leading edges with smoke ghost flames trailing off of them.

What do you think (the bike in my signature)

Great to know. This is a variation of one of their stock versions. I removed some of the skulls and added flames in smoke white.

The original version is here:

Yea, if your gonna pay for it have them customize it to your colors and tastes. I think siver base with black skulls and ghost flames would Kick ***

I think it's sick looking, I love it. However, for the price Colormania charges (for their custom work, my solid color job was fairly inexpensive from them) I would probably go with Paradice, I think they do better custom work and their prices are better. They do a lot of business on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/CUSTOM-PAINT...ht_22927wt_952

They both look pretty cool but you may as well make it YOURS. Tweak it to be just what you want. For the hard earned money your gonna spend, you want it just right...
