Not 100% sure on this one but I think it fits the 90-91 rear bumper better
and if u want a Wing...Authentic Wing hit up Versus Motor Sports for Chargespeed
price right now on them is $320-350

They look pretty good cut. The crx is looking fresh.

Just need to get the radiator, wheels and tires on the car. Then its off to paint.
I would've hit you up to help me with it (as far as paint goes), but I just don't have the time (I'm sure you're pretty busy yourself).

Re: (synergy10)
Question about clunking noise:
I just installed a Z10 traction bar on my Civic about a month ago and I did a quick alignment at work but I only adjusted the toe. Now within the last week I'm hearing a clunking noise whenever I turn right and it's getting worse every day (it's starting to make noise when accelerating now and braking sometimes). I don't feel anything in the steering wheel driving normal but on hard acceleration it makes a huge BANG noise whenever I'm upshifting at a higher RPM. I'm not a suspension guru but I think my caster might be out of whack on my passenger side which is causing my axle to bind some. I'm only guessing it's traction bar related since I never had any issues with my axles until I installed it.

Believe me, I would love to help people with body work and paint because I love doing the work but with working 60 hour weeks its hard to find the time.
Plus I have now hit another road block with my car. Since I was storing it at my parent's place in the mountains some little bastard mice ate through some engine harness wiring and fried a few things. I now cant get the car started. On top of that my oil line for the oil pressure gauge is leaking. I payed extra to get the SS braided line and it still burst. WTF!
I'm not sure how much longer my patience for this hobby is going to last.
sorry for the venting!

Truth be told, I've seen more dead mice and nests in blower/heater ducts than chewed up harnesses for cars that've been stored for a while. Then again I haven't worked at a shop since I decided to go to school instead haha
Dang, why was this sensor so expensive?
Didn't even come with a new o-ring

Yeah I have had my share of acorns and chewed up fabric twirling around in my blower motor. Luckily ef's have that plastic cover that can be removed from the outside for somewhat easy access to the blower.
I am going to try and troubleshoot the wiring tomorrow. I think it took out my ecu though, since I am now getting a solid cel even when tripped.

how does the Z10 bolt on? I suggest you take the car up to about 20mph, then do a stop. not a easy stop, but a decent stop. Get out and check your wheels. They might be sitting in the back of the wheel well due the caster problems. I had a traction bar on mine a while back and it snapped the nuts on the frame (where the tow hooks go) and I had those symptoms. It was scary to drive on the highway. Only did it long enough to get home and take them off.

That car is electric. That's where you plug it in to charge it. I kid, I kid. He relocated the battery to the rear. Those are the remote terminals, and they look sweet. That is one bad looking car
