I've worked in a big paint shop where they only painted color tests on 
paper for a given Car company...

Anyway, I've seen cars, and I've seen fresh car paint...

This really look realistic, though I would give a much much more fine 
noise or graininess, and the noise should go darker and lighter also... 
(more contrast)

This is probably because there is a layer beneath the paint that is 
silver and is noisy...

Anway, nice work!
