Default Help paint my bike

Alright, I have decided that I want to add a little custom to my bike. I am giong to paint it on Monday but I want your input on what I should do. First off, I am going to keep it the same color but I want to add something different instead of the factory flames. Maybe a ghost flame or who knows what else. I don't want anything that is over the top and takes away from all of the other points of my bike, but something that still looks great. If anyone has any ideas, or even better, some pictures, I would really appreciate it.

Maybe a silverish ghost flame would look good, but I want people to know that it isn't factory so I might stay away from silver...not sure yet

The more I think about it, the more I think I want ghost flames, but I'm not sure what kind of flames, or even what color. I need your imput. Ya'll have some badazz bikes so your opinion really does matter and will make a difference in my final decision.
