Possible ghosting issues after calibration

When I first assembled the C1 and printed, I was having clicking on the pulleys and drifting to the right. After reading this post, I removed the screw and am having straight prints, but I seem to have some ghosting. I |loosened all of the tension screws, reset the gantry, did x/y calibrations, and did the manual belt tuner| for 2 hours; I'd get the calibration to pass, but the homing was off or would sound like it was crashing into itself *way* too hard......
But after the 2 hours, it prints like a dream, can barely hear it. But I'm still getting what I assume are ghosting/VFAs. I ordered the accelerometer set cause why not, but is there anything else I should do?

It gets all...hologrammy around the text edges

Left is before calibration, right is after in cube pictures

The pugs side is rough looking idk

Can you please send us a 3MF file where you can still see the VFA?
