Lol. Funny arguements.
It is brush. You can see that. But i understand abime. There is a big difference in realism between some of the side parts and the front bumper. But this is probably because you could base the side on the original reflections, the front bumper needed more input on your part... never the less this
is brush

Just add a bit more contrast to the paint i think
As for the design - i'm not over keen, it makes the rims look tiny and its now way too curvy.
But overall a decent attempt. Keep it up. And ignore abime
