Help detailing '97 civic

Hey guys,

I've been doing some reading and finally decided to try this stuff out on my own. Here's my car:

Overview. Note the different shades of black on the front quarter panel.


Close up of the different shades.


Close up of the hood. Bird poop etching, clear coat damage, etc.


Other side of car, note the really dirty rims.


I was thinking about getting a PC or a UDM along with this kit from Amazon:
Amazon.com: Meguiar's Complete Car Care Kit: Automotive

Basically, I'm not looking for it to be perfect, but do want it looking better. I want to try to match up those panels in the second picture as best I can if that's even possible. Do you guys think I can get some good results with just ScratchX or will I need something like MIP or M80?

Thanks!
