Do you have spacers behind those RPF1's?

Oh I see, they're +19 offset. I'd only seen them in higher offsets before and I was wondering why they filled out the guards so well. They look really good. :)

Been spotting your car around uni lately, car looks awesome. Just wish 15" RPF1's came in the same offset. :(

You need to wax it if you havent.

It looked fine before why polish it?

What polish did you use exactly?

The finish looks pretty good in the pictures..! So you're going to struggle to gain a massive improvement.

When I still had nice paint I got very good results though using a clay bar to remove imperfections and smooth the surface, I would highly recommend trying it. Then perhaps a cleansing polish and then a sealing wax so you maintain the finish. I bought some really good specialist stuff which worked brilliantly as far as polish and wax, can get you the names if you want. I haven't polished the car lately as I have a few paint chips which cracked the paint badly on the front now (track days, flood waters and interstate driving) but it still had a nice shine thanks to the work I put in well over a year ago.

It only looked good on the picture, but actually paint is pretty rough. I have try clay it, but haven't get very smooth surface, for the polish i use autoglym supreme polish. It just don't through the paint.
