are they the same size? is it possible to place crx molding on an ef? only reason i ask is because i totaled my front end... and now have a crx front and was looking to put my molding back on before i repaint my car... but then im unsure of what's going to happen when it comes to the rear bumper.. i'm thinking bout gettin 90-91 molding all round including the rear bumper.. but not sure.. give me some info.

 

yeah ,civic and crx moldings are different..that rear bumper is gonna be mis-matched

 

All those parts are dirt cheap new from honda. Just get the right ones.

did you read that he wrecked his front..? (1) front bumper,(2) fenders,(1) filler piece and new moldings all around is not cheap from honda....

 

$150 for door molding is not that cheap to alot of us.

 

ya, I used to be like that. But when it comes down to the time and finding the parts and mixing and matching them till they all fit, it's usually not worth the effort. For the body panels, I can get everything for the front end for less than $300 (hood, fenders, bumper) and the side moldings are like, $70 a side from hondapartsdeals.com

 

ya.. the big problem is the crx front end.... i'm looking to change the crx bumper to the one with the air ducts in it.. i belive the si one.. but then the molding will still be a solid bar.. versus the one with the stripe in it.. so i was looking to have all solid molding like the crx + 90-91 civic molding and rear bumper.. or option b) i fill in all of it around.. which i really do not want to do to keep the jdm look.. but i already bondo/fiberglassed the holes for the molding..... here are some pix:

before: (4 years ago when i painted my car the first time.) ((i was a freshmen in hs when @ this time))
and now:

soo poll it up:
crx si bumper with 90 - 91 civic molding & rear bumper
fill it in all the way around
keep bumpers i have now and just repaint it?

 

that crx bumper on there now is 88/89,,they all look like that dont matter si/hf/dx..the one with the little cutouts is 90-91....

and none of the crx moldings have the little groove like the hatch..not even the 88/89 like you may be thinking..

 

60 bucks new for most of the outside moldings new at honda.
