Why didn't you knauberize the car since you were getting it painted? My logic is that you're spending all that money just to change the color, so you obviously love and will take care of the car. So why not take the extra risk and remove the plastic worthlessness they call ding gaurds (mine haven't helped yet)?
I like the color at least. It does need a drop, and IMO those window vent cover things need to go.
