EF 3pc. Front End
 
Just wondering if there was a company (JCR, Exospeed) that made a 3pc. front end for EF's? Will the CRX kit fit with no issues? Thanks! :beer:

I think Chris Harris @ Xenocron bought a few sets of these a while back. May want to contact him and see if he has any left in stock. He is excellent to deal with and has great prices.

So you guys distribute the JCR kits now? I was wondering where those molds went after JCR's demise... Glad to see you're resurrecting the product line. :thumbup:

:o :thumbup:

Let me know how that fits when you get it in! Now i'm leaning toward the Exospeed kit... The JCR kits are a little too outdated for my taste. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Re: EF 3pc. Front End
 
Wil has been putting a lot of work in on that kit. So Im sure itll fit great. I dont doubt that itll need a small amount of body work, as all fiberglass parts do. But Im really glad I waited for Exospeed to finish it up.

As far as the wait, Ive been waiting for years. So a couple weeks more wont bother me one bit. Ive already paid for mine, and hes been in contact with me every step of the way. Couldnt ask for better service so far.

And Strada. You should post more pictures. The reason I didnt buy yours, was because I thought I felt sketch. You took the JCR CRX fenders, with the side skirts, and tried to knock them down, and the fitment didnt look good at all. When I asked you to fix it, you said you did, but wouldnt send me pictures of the adjustments because "the customer needed his car back"... Sorry, not gonna buy a front end that clearly has fitment issues just looking at pictures.

Fitment issues Im referring to:

Damn 5 front ends? If I was the dude I would do something about that...

@ theidealone Strada has been there from step one on my rsx front end build. Last time I checked around this company keeps there word. To me that's more than enough. U know that saying "once a cheater always a cheater"

Been thinking about cutting these up to work on my DB2 project, anyone got plans for a 90-93 Integra kit?

The plan was to use some aftermarket fiberglass ricer fenders and front bumper then section these onto the bottom. I think the shape would work with 2nd gen Integras if the top section was done right.

There is a reason I deal with Wil and will continue to do so. He isn't the most organized guy in the world, but that's where I try to come in and help by stocking what I can.

Competition is good but if you can let your products and service speak for themselves, you don't need to use these kinds of business practices Chad, give it up as its starting to appear desperate.

Looking forward myself to getting one of these Exospeed Fronts on my EF, the wait has been worth it!

I'm with Curtis on this one, too bad you couldn't have just fixed the fenders it yiy woulda had 2 sales a month ago.

Yea, he seemed great when he said he was working on the EF front end. Then when he wouldnt send me pictures of the fenders like I asked, but kept asking for my payment, I had to back out. Plus, I know Jay (who has made up Strada Industries) was the owner or one of the owners of 5 Star Motoring. I googled that company, and that sealed the deal.
