Nice job and like what the owner has done to taillights.
Don't like the orange peel look on trunk lid. Both BMW and Benz have it, bad for a luxury car. On the Acura RL you did there was none as Acura wet sands the paint and so does Lexus.

Fantastic job with the paint, but I guess you can't fix ugly with a detail.
