Very nice work. It looks amazingly symmetric!

It looks like you know very well what you are doing, but just in case: sometimes, with the fiberglass you don't see any deffects on the surfaces, and then, when painted and polished, some minor deffects are evident.

To avoid this, it's common with clay models to cover them with metal foil, smooth it out, and check how it reflects light (better if it is a line-pattern light as from a tube lamp: on the reflections you can see changes of curvature etc.)

Easier on CAD than on reality, but the same principle:
