Most likely that color contains pearl red toner in the mix. So when you are done spraying the truck, take about 8-10 ounces pint (in a quart can) of the left over color, then fill up the rest of the can with red pearl toner (the milky red toner, not the bronze red looking toner*). This will lighten it enough that it should give a great effect (and also be the same type of shade.
I would mask off the flames, then airbrsh the edges in.
It will give it the same basic effect as this paint job.

You can also use black with some pearl in it. This way the flames would be darker, instead of lighter.

<font color=red>Note:</font>Be sure and do a test panel before doing the actual flames on the truck to make sure this is the effect you want

*All basecoat/clearcoat mixing systems have two red pearl toners (some three). One of them looks red, and the other will be milky looking with a slight red tint to it, this is the on you want to use.
