Just a personal prefrence but i think stock is best... and body kits are gay...only body swap should be SIR front end with a swapped engine...

I'd say only get the kit if you can get the real WW kit, the eurathane version and not the fiber glass knock off...but I have a real one and plan to put it on my 90 Si

On the CRX it works, on the Hatch it doesn't. <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by Loserkidwac »</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">I'd say only get the kit if you can get the real WW kit, the eurathane version and not the fiber glass knock off</TD></TR></TABLE>

Re: (njn63)
i'll agree with a few that stated the same before...
on a CRX.
on a civic.
do you have any pictures of your car? also, what color are you painting it? that would make my decision.

Stock body
Kits are a hassle not to mention the fiberglass doesnt pigment the same way regular panels do. Thats why a lot of painted kits dont always match. Cracking, peeling, not fitting properly, body kit tape..... not worth it in my book

Re: body kit or no body kit...... (EL Vap133)
If it were any body kit, I'd have to side with this one. However. A year from now, when you have a body kit that's out of style and doesn't match the rest of your body lines, you will be kicking yourself. OEM ftw. It's the same reason I don't ever buy new clothes. I just wait until my work uniforms are updated.

Re: body kit or no body kit...... (EB38)
Do what I did, I planned out a complete stock body look with lips and everything for the CRX I love (my 89) - 90/91 bumper, new hood, password lip etc...
But I always had a thing for the WW kit too... so I went out bought a twin crx (90si also black) and bought a urethane version for it, so I'll have the best of both worlds when I go outside. On days I feel like a ricer, ill drive the WW on days I feel clean Ill drive the other.
Plus having two crx's is much more fun, one has a b16 with a big turbo going into it, the other is getting a Vtec treatment going NA.
One has fat fives, the other HX wheels...
I dont have to ever make up my mind between the two choices I like, I get both and put one on one, and the other choice on the other.!
FTW fellas, FTW.
