Looks good, I'm thinking about tinting my windows and like the way yours look.
Also ( forgot to ask in my original post) what kind of wax are you using?

I use a Porter Cable 7424XP polisher - Klasse all in one using white polishing pad. Top it up with a layer of Black Fire Wet Diamond paint sealant using a black finishing pad.

Yeah - 7424XP is definitely a good polisher

Meguiar's product are great, may I ask what colour is your Civic? If yours is black I recommend you to give the Black Fire Wet Diamond Paint Sealant a try. It an amazing product.

Let's post some pictires after you have detailed your car.

My civic is white :/ doesn't look as good as black but still looks very nice.
I'll for sure post some pics when I detail it though, I actually washed it yesterday but it rained last night
