Lol, guess I'm lucky that the local inspection station is owned by my dad's friend . I'm going to see if I can get a pic showing how nice the finish came out. Too bad this iPhone camera stinks, but I'll see what I can do.

Ok, here are a couple of pics I took to give you an idea of how smooth it can come out without going through the process of wetsanding. The first one is from behind and the second I just grabbed a box I had handy so you could see how smooth the finish is in the reflection.

Geez Teach, if it weren't for the seams between the lights and the body those would completely disappear...almost do now. They look flawless. Great job.

Jason, they wouldn't complain if you let them ride inside.

Thanks. I really didn't want to wetland them so I gave the meguiars 205 light cut polish a try and that is how they came out. I like the results, now I just want to go even darker .
