you have done a great job here - aside from the caps(which appear frictionless) - the bottles look realistic. One thing I may suggest is to add a diffrent texture to the background(plastic on plastic = low contrast. cheers.

I think it looks very good. I have tried it my self, to make plastic bottles. And it is very hard to make the render look realistic.
