You basically get what you pay for.

When it comes to detailing it truly is you get what you pay for. Wouldnt even be worth the drive for me to come out there for $100-200

Sounds like its got oxidation going on. You need to use a polish and a cutting pad to remove the oxidation and to bring the shine back. This happens when paint is unprotected and left out in the elements.
