    I spent about 5 minutes wet sanding with 1000 grit and then used a buffer with multiple waxes and sealants.

    Next stop is the hood. Does anyone else have a rediculously horrible hood with specs of paint missing? My care came like this so I am going to take it off and sand and repaint it with factory paint.

    Looks awesome. Can you tell me what you used as far as wax and polishes? I'd like to do mine.

    I'll be honest, I have a box of like 25 waxes and polishes. I grabbed a couple and we t at it. But one I did use and would recommend was Maguire's car polish for plastic that says on the front of the bottle that it works great for headlights.
