The car is very clean. Your side skirts could use some armor all or something to keep it shining, your tires need some help...they look dull, and your tail light gasket needs to be replaced. Other than that not bad.

Yeah, I was planning to get the two front tires replace probably by the end of this year. As for the tail light, it is not leaking anymore. The picture you see was taken a few months ago. I took it apart to see what caused the leak, cleaned the gasket, and then retighten the tail light to the car very tightly. Since then, the leak was gone.

Yeah, i have a crack on my windshield. When i bought the car, it was halfway cracked. Then the crack kinda ran across the windshield. It's on the passenger side so i don't really care about it. I have a graduation tassel hanging down my rearview mirror by the map light. Haha, nice spot!

My headlights were very bad too. My friend gave me this liquid to buff out the yellow spots on the light. The result is what you see in the picture. My car was repainted last year because the clear coat on the top of the car peeled really bad.
