    FFR 8092 is on Fire!

    PPg Vibrance "Hellfire" that is. The Master Painter/Wizard Jeff Kleiner is putting the final touches on the paint job. Copper color is the base course for the Hellfire. No clear on yet in these photos. Extremely happy with the result so far!!!

    That looks great. I'd like to see it in the sun. Is that what they call a 'candy' color?
