I am building an Astro van... Any thoughts on that?
I am leaning toward a sunset orange with stealth graphics under the topcoat. BUT, I would also like to keep it simple.
It is such a large canvas it lends itself to going kinda crazy...

Sounds interesting! I assume you mean "ghosted" effects ...like the ghost flames are done?

Yup. My truck has "Stealth" flames. Pearl blue powder sprayed in a clear carrier and then buried under the clearcoat. You really don't notice them until the sun or a brite light hits them and then they POP! Most people don't even know they are there.
