Looks good... But I will pass on some info for ya from another who with a Comp. Orange car. Don't just wash and wax the car.. You have to go through the process of washing, claying, paint cleaning, Rubbing Compound, Polish, and then at a minimum three coats of wax. Do it in the shade and if you know how or if you have one, use a Porter Cable Polisher. Other wise you end up with crazy amounts of sun swirls on the car...
Its about a two day process, hell I just got done doing mine over the past couple days, the results are uncanny

Yep... Its a hell of a process. I am thinking of having the whole car re-sprayed, I have a couple rock ships on the front bumper that are getting on my nerves

I washed the Charger in the driveway yesterday, and used the Jax Wax on it (I LOVE THAT STUFF!). Two bad ass mustangs rode by while I was in the driveway washing my car, I didn't recognize them, but they both looked over at my house as they rode by. We used to have mustangs ride by revving their engines all the time, at Vinny (he would do the same thing though!).
