So since nobody else asked, what year of CRX did it come from?
Because '88-89 (actually late-'87 to mid-'89) JDM CRXen use the exact same hood as all '88-91 USDM CRXen, with the exception of the DOHC model, which has a unique hood (commonly referred to as a "ZC hood") that only differs by having a hump on the left side to clear the DOHC ZC engine timing belt cover.
All '90-91 (actually late-'89 to '91) JDM CRXen use a hood that is commonly and inaccurately referred to as a "JDM hood" or "SiR hood." The hinges will bolt up in place of a USDM hood, and you may get it to latch with some half-assing, but will not come anywhere close to fitting up with the rest of the USDM front end.

The hood with the small hump on the left side is only for the '88-89 JDM DOHC ZC models and '88-91 EDM DOHC ZC models.
All '90-91 JDM CRXen had the hood with the raised center section.
The SOHC ZC is physically identical to the D16A6, at least externally.
