    Opinion?

    Hi,

    What do you reckon so far? Just finished spraying over the imperfections, and will need YET MORE sanding!
    Finish is much nicer in person...not so tarry!

    I'd suggest doing a picture in the sunlight without a flash if you can. I'm sure that flash is making it look worse than it is, plus it's just too dark in general to really critique it.

    Good luck.

    Looks good. No uneven lines, as far as i can tell.
    Maybe a bit to much texture for my taste.

    What are the plans for the finishing paint layers?
    Maybe sanding everything of a bit(less texture), and top it of with clear spray or matt black?

    Keep up the good work.

    im not wild about the deep texture, but i think given the proper aplication in your vechicle, it will look awesome.

    if you are going for rugged, it looks great. if you wernt, i would suggest some fill in primer over that, to mute the texture.

    otherwise, the mold looks awesoem, everything is smooth interms of curves and lines. looks very nice.

    In a RR, quite rugged. It isn't as bad when you look at it in person. I know 'the camera never lies' but it does! lol

    It has yet to be completely finished, like iron out the niggly bits, but that can only be done in the car, with air vents back in etc. Also, maybe go for matt paint over gloss?
