You should try somethings by yourself, looks some wires from other modelers (better they are, better you'll be, if you know to observe)

try to smooth (meshsmooth) with a little iteration (one or two) and check your surfaces (with reflections for example).

it was the way I progressed, not so far ago and i'm allways!

mesh smooth=2 iterations

now i have another problem...
take a look at the first picture.now to the second.
in the second one, you can see,on the hood, that the vertex 2 is perfectly edged after a turbo smooth modifier.
now, the vertex 1 is not perfectly edged.it's a lot rounded...after a T smooth.
I want to make the vertex 1(or maybe the edges) to be like vertex 2...
if i'll don't do this then,there will be a gap between the headlight,hood,and grill...after a smooth modifier...


the third image is just for c&c...

Hi!
You are doing fine, I have less knowledge of this than you but regarding your problem I read in a tutorial about a Nissan Z350 to do as I try to show you in the attatched picture.

Edit: I found the tutorial, made by Dias (http://www.treddi.com/upload/satan/t...nissan_030.jpg)
and from his own site you can download the complete tut in pdf format: http://www.cgreality.com/tutorials.html

To save you some time, dont bother smoothing anything till you have chamfered all the edges, cause it will never look any good until you do.
