So i put 3 more coats on. I dont know if im happy with it? It actually may have looked better before the last 3 coats of paint. What do you guys think? There are some flaws on driver door and roof and driver side quarter panel.

Matt, you probably have too much paint and you have some orange peel. At this point, you should stop painting, rub out what you have being careful not to expose edges. Use some  Tamiya tape over things like the dart on the trunk and then get some 3600-8000 sanding cloths and go through them on the top, trunk and other surfaces until you have a smoother finish. You can also use a rubbing compound like Meguiar's Scratch-X which is what I use in between cloths to help the finish. Once you have a finish that you are happy with you can touch up any exposed plastic and then add a clear coat or two. After that has dried, repeat the rubbing out session finishing with a wax and see what you have.

P.S. You don't have to start a new topic, just add to this one.
