If you are looking to put something cheap on your car, it might come out cheap. As a matter of fact, some decals would actually look counterproductive. If you are thinking about ebay decals they are actually rather expensive and do nothing for performance.

If you are interested perhaps this might help: (not affiliated)

I actually bought a buffer from AutoZone, came with a yellow pad. I need to go buy some Mquires Swirl Remover compound. The buffer came with two yellow pads. The first time, after a nice wash, I just waxed the car. It took care of some of the thinner swirls, but still in direct sunlight, there are lots of swirls. So I think I need to treat the swirls first, then shine her up.

you need an orbital buffer that will produce enough torque to de-swirl.
I rarely see these at autostores. Try autogeek.net

He is right. I have a decent Hitachi buffer and one from Harbor Freight and the harbor Freight one is great and has lasted 4 years and numerous cars. Try Wizards Final cut and some Zymol, that will do it.

Just got done installing a short shifter today! The difference is AMAZING! At first I thought I wasted money and would not even be able to complete the installation, but it was well worth it. I think the only complaint you will find thought is that it makes the shifter look a bit less oem- it is positioned to the left in neutral but I park my car in reverse gear to make it look flush.

Did you flip the lever around first?
Also, unhook the outer of the left/right cable at the back of the shifter, position the lever straight up, and reconnect it.
