Default New CRX project for me

it's been a while since i've posted on here, but I thought I would give you all an update.

Still have my black JDM-inspired CRX, but found another CRX Si (black of course) for sale. was a 1990 Si in D.C. for $2K with 89K miles on it. So I picked it up. Guy was the first owner, and not really a car guy, but took decent care of it. its been in DC ALL its life and has the scars to prove it. engine is strong, and interior is really clean, but the exterior is beat from parallel parking for the past 15 years.

90% of the little issues with the car, I had extra parts laying around - hood, rear bumper cover, center cargo compartment, trunk divider and cargo cover. need to get a drivers headlight, another fender (LF fender is aftermarket and soft and just nasty, so thats going), possibly a new front bumper cover, and then just needs dents pulled and a fresh coat of paint.

so here are some pics of my new ride:
how she looked when i got it:



cleaned up the engine bay and rear hatch to get all the crap out of it



a walk around after new hood and corner lights, and a needed bath





plans are to lower it, get some front fog lights, move my 15" Konig Vilains to this car (Mugen MF10L's going on the other CRX ), new moldings, rear hatch louvers (oh yeah!!), maybe a EDM 16v spoiler. then as money progresses I will focus on some motor ideas and suspension setups.

flames/comments welcome.
