This daily driver has been lacking a garage for several years now and also been going through the automatic washers. With both of those in mind it's no surprise the condition was as shown. But luckily it came out looking better than it started for sure. Unfortunately I started right after the rain had subsided. But that also meant when I finished the next day the sun had still not come out.

After pictures: This headlight improved significantly: Love the purple hue this paint color emits: Tail lights swirl free: No sun but still pulled outside to take a peek: Thanks for taking a look!
Good work, nice to know the paint didn't hold you up. I have the exact same car in Alabaster Silver Metallic so my results aren't as obvious, but mine needs some similar love.
