Default Let the de-ricing begin!

Ok guys here it is im working on the de-ricing project.
As i bought it.




Took off the purple tint, painted the faded silver trim around back hatch back to black, and stock tails!





This will be the next stage in the de-ricing phase. ill be doing stock headlights, amber corners and amber bumpers


And hopefully soon ill be putting some gunmetal LS meshies!

I'd get the bumpers and get the correct 90-91 center piece to match your tail lights before worrying about the front lights. Sure they aren't stock cleanliness, but they aren't as rice as mismatching parts and body kits.

Hm, **** i didnt even realize that wasn't the right center piece, but now that you mention it, it does look a little off. As far as the body kit, i like the wings west kit, and it'll stay, i think that will look fine once i get some different wheels, and eventually a paintjob..

I picked it up for 1700, its still got the stock d16 in it, but it runs like new! some might say it was too much, but i feel like i got a good deal, the tranny has no grinds, shifts smoothly

Already looks better with oem tails, decent car to start with for sure.

Change up the exhaust, get some new bumper and corner lenses, and flat black paint those wiper arms. That really help with the clean look.

Any interior pics?

Lol, under the body kits= rust. Wouldn't that be funny. 1700 isnt that bad, tires look good, and its an si model. That's a pretty clean crx.
