If you have it I'd experiment with the Perfect-It to see what kind of job it does on the real faded areas. IIRC, your BMW hasn't seen much car care before you bought it. So an aggressive polishing won't hurt it too much. Although I haven't seen it in person my guess is that the paint job is mostly wasted and short of a full respray, not much is gonna make a big improvement. So if it were me, I'd use the BMW as a test lab to learn, refine, and hone my detailing skills. She ain't never gonna be a show car so no point in treating it like one. Use her as a rolling classroom instead. Just my two pennies.

Oh, and what are you gonna use on the windows, inside and out?

And isn't there a little chrome and stainless trim on the car?
