Seeing as you asked, and I'm not being a complete a**e here, however:
Your repair is shocking and your spraying leaves a lot to be desired. everything is orange peeled and not at all a 'decent job'. If people think it needs to go standard then that means using good qaulity parts and decent finishes.
It's your car. If you're comfortable in it then that is great.

Out of interest how much did you pay for the mirrors?
You could have swapped your DTM ones for normal ones that didn't need repairing.
