Could you not make the indent of where the side strips used to be more apparent? I think it looks nice - breaks up the panel a bit having the wee indentation.
Generally though - the bodywork is looking much better

small update for you so on most of the pictures you see of my car you will notice that it is always the passengers side i dont know why this is and i have left it to late to get a pic of the drivers side all built up with out paint
so heres another pic of the passenger side
here we have a picture of the smooth roof in primer
here we have a picture of of the smooth doors off the car
