This top one is a week ago after I finally finished my paint, just after buffing and polishing.

This is taken just now in good light.

I will take some in a couple day, those are phone ones, I dont have the real camera at the moment, will get it back in a few days.
I could make the whole car perfect glossier, by sanding in 1200 all over then re buffing and polishing, but to hide minor flaws, and because it looks tougher, im keeping it slightly satin.
