Oh, and I used some rubbing compound on the headlight lenses.

Now just get a chin spoiler on it. Hood could use some adjustment too...
And yes, Meguiar's cleaner wax is indeed FTMFW.
Slap some Meguiars NXT2.0 LIQUID WAX AND NOT PASTE and it'll look even better. Just let the wax cure for 20 minutes and apply in thin coats for easy removal. I have 4 coats on my fully machine polished 940 right now. The paint is damn near perfect.

I can't figure out how to bring that hood down. And I will have chin and new paint sometime after I get to Cali. The paint looks good with some wax, but if you get up close, there are paint cracks, small rust spots, and general make-me-wanna-cryness. Will be getting that same color, cuz I love it.

I used the same wax on my 940 (its bright red BTW)... brought it from dull and flat back to glossy... yep, Meguiar's Cleaner Wax FTMFW!

its the rear bolts on the hood spring, you might have to remove them and bore out the hole a little so it looks lower. pop your hood and use your brain, it not hard

To make it soopersexysmoove get yourself a clay bar kit and use it. Then toss the NXT wax on top of that.
NXT is the truth.
