Detail on a Cobra R

A friend and I spent a little over 5 hours on this Cobra R earlier this year. I don't think the car had ever been detailed, waxed but never detailed.
I washed it 3 times Sunday in Dawn for prep.
We first claybared the whole car and got off a LOT of junk.
We used Meguire's Professional line products for the paint cleaning and buffing.
On the top had to hit it two steps. Andrew took care of the hood with a regular buffer and I came back over with my DA for a final buff, since for some reason the hood was repainted in a single step paint and not a base/clearcoat! I'm very surprised and happy at how well the hood turned out.
We both went over the car with DAs on the vertical surfaces with a light cut.
Then we washed and dried the car and put two coats of owner requested NXT.
The car now looks RED instead of dang Orange!
Sorry for the sucky pics!

Still looks orange in these pictures! :) Whatd he do with the front bumber? Definately one of the coolest cars Ford has made.

Edit: Is the splitter just off?...
