You need an electric buffer and rubbing compound.

Also your shade of white is nothing close to my shade of white.  I don't see any blue, but my car is almost almond.

This is both cars, the day after I bought the 83.  You can see how the 88 is white like your car and the 83 is different.

This one shows it more, and in person it looks even more almond colored.

Before that vin man, it needs to have ALL poeperwork done and run correctly. I'd rather it look like complete ass and run/drive then sit and look pretty and get nowhere

See, me and you have the same paint code. But according to everything I've been told, Fila paint it " pastel charcoal" not light charcoal. Possable it's the same color with a different name. Not jumping to a Fila only color, but yours has a blue tint and mine doesn't. And if it does, I don't see it

Actually,you can paint in any shade you want.Either the car is factory or it isn't.If you're changing a lot,it's been modified.....even if a little.Do what you want with it and get nuts.
