8/19/09: She is on a mission to do something to her car every day. It doesn't matter if its something as small as taking off the stock under hood carpeting area and redying it. Today she did just that and also helped me tear apart the parts car crx we purchased. From that parts car she got the following items for her project:

Dealer Optional Child Seat Lap Belt
Steering Wheel
Side Moldings for Doors
Lower Fender Moldings
Headliner (its in better shape then hers)
Engine Harness
Shift Linkage (parts car had D series, her car came with a b series one)
Mint 90-91 Seats


Anyways heres some pics from today (actually just 2 lol)

The interior hopefully will come out sexy as all get out. This project has a couple different names lol 1. Beauty and The Beast 2. Project Clean and Mean

Now I did this in the marketplace but haven't had many views and even less replies so figured I would try in here. She is looking for some parts, and figured I would see what I can find her. Heres what she's looking for

OEM Optional Armrest
OEM CRX CD Player
OEM Equalizer
OEM Black Floor Mats
OEM Winidow Visors a.k.a rain gaurds
Original Owners Manual

Also if you have anything of intrest toss it in here i.e:
Optional Parts I didnt list, litterature regarding CRX's (88-91's), jdm parts, edm parts or just rare parts

i would recommend weathertech rain guards instead of oem. i have them for my ek 4 door and they are awesome. they sit in the window slot instead of on top, making it basically impossible for leaks on the top

Oh, ok. I didn't see that in this thread, but then I checked out the other one. Both builds look good. Congratulations on the proposal and the house! When I started on one of my CRXs I had a new house being built and a baby on the way.... poor car got deprived! lol

She is prob gonna do body work next, found replacement 1/4 panel wheel arches for 31bucks a side. My dad has been doing body work/paint for 20+ years and I am decent at it too. Wire tuck and shaved bay will prob be first thing as far as body work goes, then its 1/4's welded in, primer and her color that she has picked out, which I will not say until its sprayed on the car lol. Oh yeah she's going to learn how to weld and paint next month lmfao, I will guide her through this build but I will not build it for her. Its her car, so she gets to put her sweat, tears and blood into it but she doesnt mind
