Need to stop that kind of talk. He's doing a great job transforming his ride to his vision. It's not a competition.

Agree this is not a competition we all have a vision be it mild or wild. Looks good my friend. Wish my lip fit as well as yours.

Yeah, don't go overboard. It looks good. If you remove the chrome strips at the bottoms of the doors it will look less busy.

Nice looking car. But is there a way to cover up the moonroof with the matte vinyl too? The shiny glass looks a bit odd contrasting with the matte of the roof.

+1 treat it as you would your body. I wouldn't polish it it with anything abrasive though. If you do get really obvious swirls, maybe light polishing compound, but I'd be very hesitant as I'm not sure how much clear coat is really on there. Just wash as normal (sheep mit or grout sponge), sealant, and wax.
