Tried to get the reflection in this one:
My reflection in the hood:
Wheel turned out good, wish I had a before pic, COVERED in some kind of oily substance. I think possibly the caliper is leaking fluid? Any ideas?
I think it has a nice a**:
View from the porch:
Again:
These two things together DO WORK. If you haven't tried it, I suggest you do.
I just put one HEAVY coat of this on:
It's about empty, someone recommend me a good wax to try.
Took this one with my cell phone but thought it looked good:
That's all I got. Lemme know what you guys think.

Here we go. Just had the spray on foam. I thought I had the Black Magic Tire Wet in the trunk, but it's MIA at the moment, so this will have to do. Didn't turn out like I'd hoped.

Fix't 
Have you used a claybar on the car yet? Maybe it's just the pictures, but it seems like the reflection on the door should be a little sharper... how's the paint feel after waxing? Is it smooth or kind of gritty?

Yeah, I've used a clay bar before. I was going to do it this time, but I didn't have any of that quick detailer that it gives you with the kit and I didn't know what else I could use. The paint is smooth. I've noticed that in places it's more glossy than others, like the hood for example. Who knows. Thanks for the compliments guys. The wax I've been using is about empty. What else is a good wax that's not to pricey?

If the stuff was on the front tires, it could be the same thing as what mine used to do. I had a small oil leak that was getting onto the crank pulley (or anything else that rotates) and was flinging oil all over the engine compartment. If you have the engine cover on the bottom, then you can probably ignore this, but since mine was never there, the oil was able to splash on the bottom inside of the wheels and work it's way everywhere. If that's not the case, it might just be some solution of brake-dust and water.

Mine has the engine cover on the bottom of it, so I don't think that's what it is. I have a small brake fluid leak, that's what made me think it was brake fluid.

It may have very well been repainted. Some couple had it before me, so idk.

For the tire dressing, buy the eagle one tire foam applicator. You can make sure it stays on the sidewall and the dressing wont spray all over the place.

Nissan's paint didn't suck THAT bad.
Also, I wouldn't tell people it took you almost 5 hours to do that.

Because it looks like it got washed by a three-fingered, overweight flag girl at the local high school band's fundraising carwash.
