She looks really good mate!! I done half of mine today, i didn't need to clay as i haven't long done it so just stripped it back and used G3 scratch remover then a coat of AG SRP and then 2 coats of Angelwax hard body wax. Only had the GTI nearly 3 months and i hate black now because it's murder to keep clean lol. Looks amazing when it is clean though

not too shappy but i'd hardly say you polished it as no polish has touched the car XD
