From the pics, it looks very good. I haven't seen it in person, but from the pics I think you did a great job.

Yeah man I'm sure from a few feet it looks great. All these guys are trying to tell yah is that there is a reason people pay good money for paint and not half ass it. Take the time and go look at davids thread about a car that was half assed. Sorry dave no harm intended just trying make the point.

Yup I for one have seen some half way decent rattle canned paint jobs. But like stated all that matters is if you are happy man. Hell look at my paint job. It was 5k to do the whole car with flames and all. Some like it some don't. I don't care because its different and the quality is top notch. Trust me I know about being on a budget. My motor took a shit on my ss and I've got a house and a 6mo old to worry about and people are like oh just buy a cheap motor for 800$ and be done. Well money doesn't come easy as it did so now its going to take me some time before I am able to get it back together. Just do what you like to do

I think part of the problem here is that he didnt say that flat white was the look he was going for in the picture post. I was thinking he was going for a nice glossy white, and thought to myself, damn that looks like shit. But if he was going for flat white, then it works and it came out pretty good IMO. Flat white cars look BA. Seen a c5 vette thats flat white with the rear bumper and taillight panel painted flat black, that car looks kickass.

I like flat paint on cars about as much as I like flat chests on women

Ive never had the misfortune of a flat chested woman lol. But flat paint looks badass when done right. I bet if this kid does what he says hes going to do (flat white, black berger panel and black (aftermarket) wheels, this car will look pretty good.
