keep it solid flame red. and get as many coats of laquer put on as you can afford for the deep glassy finnish
i was thinking exactly the same as you a couple of weeks ago, posted on here, everyone put me off it. look how sweet ollys car and the like looks in a solid flat colour that shines

Go for a solid colour and make sure they use good quality paint, mine was done in expensive paint using base coat and laquer, then i have applied a lot of wax

Can you have it flip from red to black the 2 colours look good together but i dont know wether this would work with a flip paint job
doubt it. flips work subtly - refracting light off small particles in the paint. Each layer is a slightly different colour so when you move it, if "flips" colour. Dont think you can go from red to black.
Most are more subtle like red to magenta to purple - similar shades or complimentary colours.
Who knows though - maybe possible...
