I painted my car over 4 years ago and with focusing on the engine, getting married & buying a house, I never got around to wet sanding or polishing - even waxing. So it lost gloss and became more of a satin green, which was kind of cool.
Then at SEMA I saw satin cars everywhere and thought about repainting mine to be glossy. I don't have the time to paint it right now, so I wet sanded it and polished over the weekend.
Before:
After:
Now I feel the car is worthy of the new wheels I have waiting to go on
Going to go a little lower first though.
I'll probably keep it like this for a year or so, but still plan on stripping the whole car back down to it's shell for a complete new color eventually.

I just finished welding it back together 
I didn't realize that just the part that broke was held on by 2 allen bolts and I didn't need to remove the whole wiper assembly until I had already taken it out.

I lowered the car about another inch last night and put the new wheels on
Front lip and PBR valve stem cap that came with the wheel
The car is getting aligned right now
Next on the to-do list is replace the windshield, fix the cracked front bumper & polish that too, then experiment with some ideas on the roof. And of course finish getting the thing tuned!
