Re: Anyone paint a formula Flame Red metallic?

I have a parts car that is "brilliant red met" next to my wife's GTA it looks close but not exactly the same and it is a base firebird. I was able to get FRM in a PPG omni for 300 a gallon last summer but it does not cover as well as other reds I have sprayed.

yeah, i have seen a couple painted that color, and it looks good, but the flame red is one of the only other options i'd consider besides the charcoal and the NBM i have now.
