I love black badges on dark color cars, color keyed badges on a dark blue or a grey would be hot too. White cars require silver/chrome, and gold belongs nowhere IMO.

You need to wet sand and clear coat badly. Otherwise looks fine

wetsanding will get rid of this orange peel look I suppose? I really don't like how that looks. I gave it some clear already...but will give it more after wetsanding..what grit to use?....would claying the light remove some of that orange peel?

I used 50% red tint from autozone. And mine did turn out well. But truthfully i think the spray , like you used will be alot better , once you do the wetsanding etc. like OLT suggested.
