I like the color, and the metalflake Are you going to do one or two more layers of clearcoat? It looks like there might be some surface texture there in the 5th from last pic (the closeup), Or it may just be your camera and the lighting... Get it in natural sunlight! Then show us some pics

/A fan of metalflake

Yeah there is some on the driver side but I'm letting it cure for while then going to go back wet sand and clear it about 5 more times.

Good plan, the more clear coats, the happier your paint is I can't wait to see some natural lighting pics

i probably would have taken out the ftps, turn signals, sidemoldings, etc and painted them seperate instead of just taping over stuff. however it still looks great.
