Default Black CD Bezel - painted today

So I have been wanting to do this for a while, now that school is DONE I had some time on my hands today...I also didn't get any computer work except to order some parts. I went to lowes, bought a 100 and 320 grit sandpaper sponge, sanded down my dashboard, and then finished it off with 600g sandpaper for a smoooooth feel. I went ahead and gave it 3 coats of plastic primer, 5 coats of black gloss enamel, and so far have 3 coats of clear coat on it. how do yall think it looks right now?
I'm quite pleased at how there have not been any dimples or ugly places in the painting.

Okay stupid off topic question...why is the supscribtion and all the postes in here labeled "Black dashboard" and the topic is called "Black CD Bezel - painted today"... Its really throwin me off here...oh and I forgot to mention in my previous post that I really do like it... I can't really tell from the pics but is it a flat black or a gloss or semi gloss?
