Ok, first of all, no bad comments, or anything that may offend me, or someone else on this board.

I'll take hints and tips, but please dont bash my thread.

Ok, so anyways, i picked up this 88 crx HF for 300 from a member on here. Had it towed home, and the next day all hell broke loose.

Im going to be doing a complete paint changeover. This car is going from blue ****, to panda white with black moldings all around.

There won't be much JDM here. The onlything JDM, that i can think off is sidemarkers, i love the way they look on white cars

Ok, so here are a few pics of DAY one:

Summary: removed dash, 1/2 of the carpet, 1/2 of the TAR, started wire tuck on driver side.

I agree. Look at my car......complete Skunk2 suspension on order. Full coilovers, LCA's, and front & rear camber kits. How un-JDM is that.
