So its an '89 with a '90-91 front bumper, and a 90-91 guage cluster cowl, and a civic center console. If I remember right, the 90-91 guage cowl doesn't fit an 88-89 dash, or maybe its just a matter of the correct steering column cover... Anyways, sharp looking car. Nice clean canvas for starting out

Find an acutal crx center console. The civic console doesn't fit right at all.

If I were you I'd pick up a 90-91 style rear bumper to match the front, and have it painted OEM style with the satin black bottom.

Otherwise supper CLEAN.

Usually people take the stock seat pan and rails from the original seats and swap everything over to the new seats. I know that is what people do with other chassis, but not sure if it works with the CRX.

looks good , you should change out those hardlines so they are black again. Befor it gets too deep in the project. It is real easy to do as it sits.
