they are from a 87/88-90/91 i dont remember correctly but its from the ones with the pop-up headlights. all i had to do to make em fit how they are is drill a hole in the bumper support and screw it in place throu the opening of the turn signals. not bad right? i have the actual jdm's gettin ready to go in with switch n harness.

yea i kno his car is hell clean. my buddy is the one who taught me and brought me into the game. he couldnt decide between the gunmetal or the bronze n i told him to go bronze cuz they would "pop" on his car. but yea i was drivin the crx last night and it started to over-heat a bit. i put a new thermostat n gaskets. when i went to check my fan switch the lower hose wasnt hot, does anyone kno wat it could be? thanks

ok everyone im almost ready to wire up my vtec. i just have one question...
- i found a b16a jdm exhaust manifold on craigslist but its only the upper portion. i have a GS-R complete exhaust manifold with down pipe as well as a B16a2 down pipe. my question is this i kno that the gsr manifold and b16a2 downpipt bolt up but will i be able to bolt up the jdm b16a manifold to the b16a2 downpipe without a problem?
i kno i will have an extra o2 sensor bung (total of 3) but i will be runnin my lsvtec with a jdm pr3, it requires 2 o2 sensors, and later on i might go obd1. but wat du u guys think? im assuming it should work out. lmk thanks again.
