Sure why not....CC is always good....As long as your not offensive....
It just does not look like its well-done. I apologize if this is not pleasant to hear/read, but I'm only giving my opinion. And again, I'm not trying to dis your work, OP - just saying that it needs to be done to a higher standard IMHO.

My Ride: Black Sapphire 2004 5.30i

well i think it is clear since i've posted 3 different times that i'm no spray pro...

its the best i've been able to do with what i work with...and to be honest i agree...it looks very amateurish...but for me and for now its good enough (because i can't sand anymore or buy one more can of paint without going nuts)

and thankfully i have a few years left on my car loan...so therefore when i get tired...i can help out my ol' friend Trinity and purchase some carbon fiber wrap



opinions are welcome...you'd be hard pressed to offend me

My Ride: I have an 05 545i. It's a manual with a few options. This is my first BMW but I don't know how I'll ever be able to switch to something else.

Looks good, even if looks "amaturish" to you, don't fret over it, if I did it I would be proud of it because I actually did it and didn't just buy it from somewhere. My front grills probably don't look as good as the matte black ones that Trinity sells but I have the satisfaction of knowing I did it myself

+1

I would do something like this is IF my interior wasnt beige. I think the wood grain looks great with my beige.
