Your car is really clean! You take the A-Specs off already? Or are these just older shots with the RPF1's?

Shotta out of curiosity did you switch to 18x9.5 +15 all around, or just in the rear and kept 18x9 in the front? Looks like 18x9.5 +15 all around but wanted to be sure

Specifically, the hood near the front where there is what looks like cracking. Im just wondering if buffing would help this out and if so is this project worth it or would you recommend a detailer shop?

if you have snatches and swirl marks you do the buff...but it will make the cracking show up more

I wish I hadn't, honestly...I think the heat from the compounding causes the paint under the clear coat to shrink.

I stick with just polymer waxing now to hide the major imperfections and I live with it. From 10 feet away it looks great.
