what holes are you refering to?

 

where you bolt the radiator support on.

 

Was the car ever in a wreck before??

 

no the holes are like a 1/4 of an inch off

 

could it be because its an 88 crx and a 90 to 91 front end ?

 

if you mean 1/4 inches away from the frame of the car it is b/c you need to make spacers for it to fit right, or just bent it to fit, or something.

pics would help if that didn't make any sense.

 

ill have to get the pics tomorrow its dark out . but if you would check back tomorrow i would like your input thanks.

 

i have a 88 crx and when i put my front end on i had to bent out some **** including the radiator support not to much though

 

pics are up.

 

Just use your stock one and mod it.

exactly it can be done

 

If you have a JDM one allready use it, it is just chincy metal, bend that **** back. When I did mine on my old car it fit right up no problem. If you want to, I suppose you could bitch at the people you got it from for selling fucked up goods. IMO use the JDM one and bend it straight.

 

I just used my us one, but yeah that's bent man, but it's tin, bend it back.

coke can cars, why did i mod one so?

 

yeah you can mod bend whatever...

just damn make sure you do it so the rad support is secure, I was in a big rush to get my car painted to I slapped my whole front end on like in 30 minutes and speeded off the paint shop. thank god I was slowing down because my rad support broke free and my hood lifted about 2 feet, almost flipped into my windshield.

 

im not in a hurry at all so it will be fine. thanks or the help.
