So before any meets I really want to make the car looks its best for what I have done to it, it has some rust and stock rims (im trying to get stock gt rims for cheap) so I was wondering what I would do on the outside to add some jazz, I was thinking of a light coat of vht night shade, and window tint, and I want the paint to look nice...any ideas?

for the paint to look nice if your talking about getting it feeling smooth and shiny what i did on mine as it was a dull white when i bought it felt like sandpaper ect i bought a cheapo 10" random orbital buffer,some light polishing compound liquid first then went to some meguires ultimate polish, then i went to some liquid meguires cleaner wax then did a last coat by hand of some ice wax and came out pretty damn shiny and really smooth even with the scratches, mines white so had a ton of black finger prints,some scratches,paint exchange marks and looks loads better..eventualy it will need repainting but for now it looks decent...and when i just want to touch up the shine alittle i wash it then use some of that spray detailer, i use eagle one nano wax and works pretty good...and shamwows do work and work great for drying a car smile.gif
