Default My Crx

ok well it all started that I had a 90 si hatch, and it was super clean and i ended up hitting a deer with it, and i traded that damanged shell for this pile of crap.

This is what it looked like when I first got it, the day after we trailored it home from NJ, where I left my keys and had to go back for later that night!



















My first plan of action was to get all the body work done and start working on the motor.

I got this bumper from a friend for 3 packs of cigarettes.


New oil pan to replace the horribly dented one that came on my motor.


Clutch kit


jdm bling bling lol


So i get a call from a friend saying he knows someone with a shell for sale for 300 bucks so i go check it out and over the dude 200 to take any parts I wanted off it, well i ended up taking like half the car lol most of the stuff i got was planed for resale but i got wheels and fenders for my crx.

I have all 4 of this wheels but I only have the two up front right now cause as you can see one of them is bald and im a poor college student. ops:


So i started to work on putting the front end together, and my first experience at dent removal.













After having the body ready it was time to get the motor ready and dropped it.













So it was like that for about a month and I got tired of the shity chipped and peeling paint and rattle canned it army green. and this is how it sits to date.

You should have painted your phone number on the side instead of the engine code and other numbers so you can pick up chicks.

Like C4LL M3 1-456-444-5555

Work is progress. Keep the mesh wheels though. And slam the **** out of your car on those wheels.

imo the meshes dont look very good. Over all the car looks good with that army green paint, you did a pretty damn good job with doing it.
