You say that is a glass top? Did you mean plastic? I don't see how you can put a glass rear window since the window needs to "fold" when you put the top down.

I just had a GAAH glass window top installed here in Orlando for my 2000S...really looks good, will post pictures later. As for your wheels, you need to go to a chrome shop and get the jewelers polishing material...it's like a small brick. A 1/2 drill with a cloth round buffing wheel. Or, see what kind of price they would charge to polish them.

Yep def a glass window. Take a look at Robbins or GAHH for replacement tops with glass windows.

I'm getting the car out of the shop this week so I'll tackle the wheels soon I hope. I'm going to try a couple things myself and then move on to a specialist if I don;t get the results I want. The manufacture suggested a professional re-polish.

What suspension setup are you running? I really like the lower ride height but would also like to know about the handling. Any thoughts or comments?

I believe that it's lowered with the H&R springs I'll try and verify. The ride is rough on the highway sometimes, but I believe it's more wheel/tire size as apposed to suspension but I could be wrong. I love the look of the stance though. I'd like to look into some different shock options.
