One can almost read the brand of the bulb reflecting on the roof!

It looks just fantastic, simply just fantastic!

One photography suggestion:

Next time, wick off that puddle of water on the roof before the shot!

Other than that, looks pretty good for a beginner.

But seriously, you answered my questions about sanding and polishing the Testor's Wet Look, thanks.

And tell me about the chrome. Did you mask it prior to the clearcoat or paint over it? And is it foil or Molotow....I forgot already.
