So here is the final result with my trials and tribulations of super soft honda paint, and trying to get the most possible correction within a time/price limit. After the customer picked up the car, he was very pleased with the work, and I went over with him how the paint was going to look in the sun, and even showed him under my different lights just what to expect (picked it up at night time). Of course, I wasn't happy with what I did because it wasn't perfect, but not every customer can afford perfection, unfortunately.
