Quote: IMO, I think glossy and smooth is more accepted in the show car arena. Don't try to duplicate the factory imperfections. Only a select few will appreciate the standards of originality but it really depends on what you want.
I am in agreement with everyone on here on the topside. Now the question is the bottom. My intention is to replicate primer/overspray as opposed to body color. If the top is "over restored" and the bottom is primer/overspray I still think that works...the guy I bought my GN from had an OE gold 67 GTX. Said he figured the point deduction for paint being too nice was worth it.
Replicating overspray is 'over restored' in my book. Why intentionally crap up a nice paint job trying to replicate factory sloppiness? Your paint looks great!
Your paint looks great!
