Looks great to me. I know it's hard to make yellow look great but the upkeep is 20% of what it takes for a Berlina Black one.

I'll never own another black car because i would go crazy and my car wouldn't have a clear coat after 2 years.

I have not had any luck with ZPC either. In fact, I used 106ff one time and tried to finish with ZPC and it made the finish less clear. I had to go down to 85 and redo it.
