Audi Quattro - Good Paint?

Hi everyone,
here are some images of my current project that is mostly complete apart from the paint of course. My problem - decent refelections on the car body and how to get them looking really good.

I am using Max5 with a skylight and 2 omnis at the moment and a hemisphere with the normals inverted with a map applied. The setup also uses the light tracer solution.

The results look OK ish, but from other angles not so good....any tips or hints would be really appreciated... :? :? :?

Well I like it. But it looks like it becomes too flat near the middle of where the door should be.

Thanks....

Thanks for the comments guys, I will post a final render when finished for everyone to check out. I am trying to achieve that 'Studio' look at first and I will then move on to adding environments....whilst I am here, anyone know of any websites with good images I can use as reflection maps for the Studio??

Studio shots don't really have enviroments. Its more of a light set up with a couple illumination planes to give the car nice reflections. But there might be some enviroment maps that might help.
