    Great job. Front or rear window regulator?

    Should do belts with pulley's.

    Also.....Coolant overhaul prior to 100k miles.

    What's your budget for coilovers? Half of a kidney (I keel myself)? Anyway....what are you looking to spend?

    Additionally, Let's do both rear bearings, then do fronts at a later date.

    FUTURE:
    -Body work, lenses, headlights, fog surrounds.

    FWIW....wheels look great.
