Default Will a JDM fender fit on a USDM CRX?

I have a 1988 Crx Si & I'm planing to put JDM fenders on my car but I don't know if they would fit. I see no problems with the fitment except at where the coner light fits I don't know if JDM coner lights differ form USDM coner lights. Because if the JDM coners wrap around longer than the USDM lights then I will have to get different head lights with inturns that I'll need a different front end for the head lights. So if any has any insight on this problem it would help me out alot.

This is only partially correct. If you get ef8 fenders, they will not fit. Those are the fenders that come with the jdm front end with the wrap around bumper lights. If you get the ef6 or ef7 front fenders, they will fit. That is from a ZC front end.

Not true. The fenders fit the same on all usdm, zc and sir models. I have done a number of them. Even the little clips for the side markers from 88-89 models can be switched from 90-91 models.

no no no.....

CRX-CRX will fit. No matter where it came from, or what year it's from. Only difference is the trimming and maybe a plastic corner clip. And ofcourse sidemarkers.

CIVIC/CIVIC same deal.

CRX-CIVIC will not fit. EF/ED/EE whatever. Just keep that in mind, and don't let anyone confuse you.

If you have a CRX you want the ef8

EF8=CRX
EF9=Civic hatch

And yes all 88-91 fenders are the same as long as they are crx fenders and as said the only differences and mouldings, corner clips and sidemarkers.

And no your hood WILL NOT fit.

either one will fit. It's just that the EF8/CRX one will look more proper on a crx.

Yeah the EF9 will fit, I put one on my CRX. Fenders bolt right up too.

Why replace your fenders if you dont need to? Just buy the sidemarks and cut your own holes and save some money.
