Well I am in the process of rebuilding the front end of my crx... I went and bought a hood from a junkyard and it was from a 91 civic. I was told the hood should fit but now its not lineing up properly!! This hood should fit right?? Thanks for your insight in advance!!

 

Bump!!

 

Should be lining up unless you have JDM headlights

I am 99% sure it is the same hood but assuming it is, it still takes adjustment to make a different hood fit on your car. It's just a quirky thing like that, just make the proper adjustment to make it fit and it will be all good, you may need a body shop depending on how out of whack it is.

 

Well I did here that the crx and civic have a different front end.... So I have no idea what to think..... Ill get some pics up tomorrow!!

 

I think the only diff between the two is the fenders and bumper, correct me if I'm wrong. So the hood should be fine.

It should fit fine provided it came off of a Civic Hatchback and that your car is straight. Civic Sedan and Wagovan Hoods don't fit properly. What exactly do you mean by it not lining up properly? You mean the gaps between fenders, or the latch mechanism, etc?

 

Bump for pictures...

 

work on your front end more and check the hinges

 

is that a hood from a sedan? if it is dosent it hang a little to far from the head lights?

 

All USDM 4th gen hoods are the same. From the placement of the hinges, however, it looks like they are from a sedan. (The sedan and HB/CRX hinges have different p/n's).

Put HB or CRX hinges on it, it should work then.

 

thats a sedan hood.

Here are the hood and hinge part numbers.

This is true. I got my P/N's confused. You definitely have a sedan hood.
