Default 1997 RD1 CR-V

Hi Guys,

New to the CR-V section, thought I'd drop by to say hello to you guys.
Heres my 97 Vee. Nothing done to it so far, besides 96R wheels.

Yes, JDM 1996 CR-Vs came with 4 lug. My bet is IF his is a 1997 it is a late 1996 build date (leftover parts sold next model year). Extremely common among manufacturers but unfortunately isn't very well documented.

OP - That is one clean vehicle! Would you mind posting the build month & year just for curiosity sake?

Hi,

Yup.. 4-lug, 4x114.3

In the USA we don't have any of your options: all the visors, mirror, markers, wing, etc... they must all be sourced through JDM and EDM markets (or more recently Chinese knockoffs).

Also, in the USA we have VIN tags located in the door jamb that state GVW, VIN, manufacturing date, etc.... Maybe it's on your title?

Ugh... I need one of those spoilers in my life so bad LOL. I feel like I should color match all my trim and my bumpers... or maybe just heat gun... I'm lazy LOL. I love the "chrome" door handles too.

Wow I didn't know. I thought the fullmark accessories were the more sought after.

I'll have a look at the door jamb later.

Do let me know what are the optional items, maybe I can source them for your guys. There's a junk yard in my city. We have lots of half cuts and bits and pieces from JDM cars here.

Thanks !

Wing, Visors, Fender Mirror, Side Markers, clock if it has climate control are but a few. The fullmark does have different bumpers and rear hatch but those are the holy grail.

Can you please look out for the CRV side steps. I get first dibs if you find any.

Happy Modding!

I'd love a OEM wing like yours if you can source one LMK. Prefer Milano Red but I'll take anything!

YES if you can find fullmark parts let me know. Also the wing. I would almost give a reach around for all of that stuff.

These are the side bars. There is also one that goes across the rear.

OH OH OH and a JDM/EDM center console arm rest. I'd kill a wombat for one of those.
