On a Dreamer I'd go with vinyl....just so it can be taken back to original!
I wonder what cranberry to gold shade shift would look like on a Dream 1??

If you do go paint I think a pale pearl ghost would be awesome!

If I had the cash, painted. You can get better detail. But since I don't, I'm getting a set of Rich's vinyl ones. (Now I just have to decide on what style!!)

I would consider this maybe..fads (fast and furious-type vinyl graphics) come and go..traditional looks (painted) last forever, and will always be in style.

As do vinyl graphics. Easy removal if you get tired of the look and want something different.

Ghost flames, if any flames at all--painted on. I wish someone would subject their DC 1 to the flame process and get good results---every DC 1 I've seen with flames looks like #%&*(&^ sorry but the Inca Gold just doesn't do well with traditional flames....Very understated ghost flames just might work..

For the last year I've been hitting all the hot rod shows I can, Hot August Nights in Reno etc--I have seen several traditional Hot Rods and Lead Sleds done in colors close to or right on with Inca Gold--not a one had flames....talked to the owners-same answer--that bright metalic gold and flames do not go together--maybe Ghost flames that are higly transparent but thats it....sure hope someone can prove me wrong.....
