Paint like glass.
first time i buffed the car with a buffer, and i must say it looks fantastic. sorry there is only 2 pics... plus im bored so figured id show it off  i did this 2 days ago and took the pictures today. (car cover been on it since buffed)
it would be better if it was cloudy, ill try to get more friday since thats the next cloudy day. iphones can usually suck at taking photos on a bright sunny day.

says the one who once had the smurfmobile
I wish my paint had that much shine, however while I could get what is undamaged to look like that, it would need repainted with new bumpers and some dent removal to look near as good

I think it looks awesome... but your tails stick out now... maybe add one light coat of tint on them to give that slight sinister look to them..

That film sucks, it looks like trash and comes off.
Again, when are you going to drop that beast?

then i guess the tails will stay stock. dont plan on going back to vht. and this way, i wont have close encounters of getting rear-ended anymore.
umm very very soon. i plan on buying springs within the next week. and then struts soon after. thinkin either eibach or H&R springs.... probably go eibach... struts of course will be KYB's.

not sure about how the h&r's actually look yet, as they are still sitting in the shed, but here are a couple pictures of my eibach's for comparison on the drop... i have 2 subs in the trunk and that adds some weight, dropping the rear more than the front... overall the car appears level, but wheel gap is different...

front:

back:

My springs are h&r. Paint looks good, darker colors always shine much nicer.
