Hey signdetres, I see you live in California. Have you gotten pulled over for not having a license plate in front of your car? I was planning to take mine off too but afraid to get pulled over.

Over the years the best way I've learned to keep the finish swirl free is to wash it less. I aim for once a month and try to never touch the paint in between. I use Adam's H20 Guard and Gloss to seal and protect with every wash and it does a great job at repelling dirt and contaminants in between washes.
Personally I polish and ceramic coat my vehicles. I like using Cquartz. Clay mitt the car twice a year. Having access to the right equipment helps obviously.
My washes typically take no more than an hour and a half when it is really dirty. Kept my 07 IS black paint nearly perfect and keeps my GS looking on point. Everyone has their own preferences and methods of course.

Front license plate laws are kind of like window tint laws around here... you’re not supposed to do it but if you do, no one really cares lol. YMMV of course though.

I always recommend 2 bucket method, 2 wash mitts, and proper soap. I like using a combo of ONR and Carpro Reset. Then dry using the sheeting method and cleaning up excess spots as needed. Drying agent/sealant always adds better protection.

The closer I get to my lease ending, the more I find myself falling for this car 
It's really gonna suck when it's gone and there's no new GS to replace it with. I don't have the slightest clue what to replace it with. This is such a great car in so many ways (( Ugh
