It's difficult to tell from one photo, but much of the "next level" is personal preference. If you're looking for wetness, that may be one product. If you're looking for durability, that may be another. You may even want to "pop" the pearl/metallic flake and that's yet another product. Based on your attached pic, I'd say you did a great job on the paint. Next step may be to pull it into the sun and see how the finish came out. If it's defect free from 1-2 feet away, then I'd say that's a pretty thorough job.

What are you looking to accomplish?? That picture isn't really good to any of us, and the car looks great in the picture. I'd stick with the cyclo. I'd be interested to see some Clearkote/Poorboys products on that color.

Yes, more photos please. Get it out in the sun and lets see how she shines up. If you're "taking it to the next level", show us the interior and the motor. Show us some angles. Hire a photographer! But really, from the one so-so pic, it looks pretty nice. And you're using good product and equipment . Keep it up!
