its way to thin, try just a little thinner, 10% maybe to start with, and put thinner coats don't load the roller up so much your peice is very small of an area, if i were painting that small of an area i would get alot of the excess paint out of the roller before painting, remember you wont get a non-transparent layers until the 3rd or 4th coat. but in your last pic u can see the shine/reflection. but remember that it does'nt look really good until after the final wetsand and polish, you will never polish it by hand and you NEED a electric random orbit polisher, i used a 10" one i got from princess auto for $20 on sale. try not to expect the end result in the first coat. i have absoultly no runs, possibly due to the really really thin coats.

read this whole thread before u attempt to paint on the moparts forum, a member there did a really good job condensing the whole thread:
