If you have any scratches, stuff like that, don't count on being able to
fix them.  Almost impossible to match that kind of thing.  Maybe try an
orbital buffer or something.  I always felt that the pearl and clear coats
were a little thin and britttle.  My 5kTQ was pearl, but this summer I
painted it black.  Quite a switch.

>ps. how should I clean the wheels since they are the same color? 

Clean them the same way you would clean the rest of your car.
