GPW with Porter Cable *Pics*
This was my second attempt with the PC. I was not satisfied with the results from the first polish last week so I ordered some new stuff and I must say that I am VERY happy with the results. The paint has some light swirl marks and fine scratches. The XMT #3 Swirl Remover worked very well ans was a joy to use. I am more pleased with the Power Lock that I thought I could be. Excellent stuff and I will keep using this. It really makes the paint feel like it was washed with butter and from what I have heard longevity is not an issue. So I will continue to use it. I decided to top it this time with a carnuba blended wax this time for a little added depth which is really difficult with white. Please feel free to leave any comments or suggestions. Thanks for looking!

You forgot the floormat 
Seriously, looks great. Especially with the CR wheels. One suggestion: there is a guy who sells little push tabs that you can insert into the keyholes at doos and trunks. I got some and I think it gives the S a clean finish.
I second the badge request

Looks very clean and shiny! The key hole covers Olapua alluded to are available from a North Texas forum member, Joey Tam. Here is a link regarding the covers.
