Looks amazing dude! Knocked it out of the park man. Are you glad that you did it all yourself? I was encouraging you to do it, so I'm curious your thoughts now that you are to the polishing stage.

I’m very happy I tackled paint and body myself, it’s certainly an achievement and one that’s worthwhile looking at the end product.

The biggest reason I painted it myself was mostly out of impatience after being messed around by some painters and waiting too long. A few weeks ago a really good painter I’d been keeping in contact with became available so instead of converting my garage into a booth yet again I gave him the unpainted panels and he shot them all, DA’d most in 800 and gave them back for me to finish.
The quality of his work off the gun was that much better than mine that the wetsanding process is a breeze. Had my schedule dragged this far I probably should have just given him the whole car to keep it simpler.
