it's ok i guess, not my cup of tea. but if you're going for show, you're on the right way. i like the color, but too much flake. need to align the bumper, align the hood, and get a grill. i think that the rims don't look right, black would look tight with the mirrors. i also am not feeling the fenders.
this is what i figure...
align the bumper, black 18's, cf hood, cf trunk lid, cf mirrors (since you said you were gonna get em), and since you've got the turbo set up, you'd be straight ballin.
just my .02

i agree with everyone elses comments. i think any dark wheel would set off the paint a lot better. i think people would be lookin too hard at the wheels and not the very expensive paint you got their. your engine bay is clean, all you gotta do is paint the charge pipes on there and it will look a lot better... cheers!

Paint job is clean bro, nice job. Wish I could do my own. The wheels are the only thing not flowing. Everything else looks good. Keep up the good work.

Looks like a bass boat to me. I don't like the flake size in the paint. And the chrome... ugh... The color would be alright without the flake and either some black or dark grey rims.

cool color, but again the flakes are too big, loose them chrome wheels, side mirrors should have been painted too. Did you bondo or painted over the side skirts and rear bumber together with the body to make it like a one-piece look? If so, watch out for them speed bumps. Your side skirts may crack and damage the paint job along with the body paint. Instead of replacing and repainting just them side skirts, you'll end up repainting your car on each sides.
