The only thing I'd like to add is to apply 3 layers of clear coat instead a one coat. Let each coat dry for about an hour in a clean and non-dusty area. I have done this on my IS300 and Acura and still looks good after two years and easier to spray wash and wipe down.

Did you have any problems getting the wheels back on the hubs, after painting them? Nice job
