Someone who likes the new HT on vB?? Blasphemy!

In all seriousness though, nice Rex. Keep the side moldings this time and you're set.

Ah, your rex is really close to being really nice. Clean up all the ghetto stuff going on in the engine bay and paint those rear drums black cause brembo never made red drum brakes! j/k

haha drums came that color, i've been meaning to do a rear disk, so its not a huge priority to paint the drums.

also that fuse box i had to move it to do something. just never moved it back.. never really noticed it outta place either.

No, Im talking about your crx's radiator support.

Im all about function>form, but Im thinking about safety.

Even a light tap in the front and that support is going to fold like an accordion.
