Nothing yet. I'm going to drop some money into it over the summer, but it won't be very much.

yup! the glass came unsealed from the frame it sits in. it flew off going 90mph on I-75 one day. luckily i was in the left lane so it didn't hit anyone and ended up in the grass. i ended up buying the whole inner roof assembly off of another integra from Gagels and just used the glass out of it. the guy at Gagels said it happens frequently and that they have trouble keep the glass in stock.
