Default Update on my CRX

Just wasting some time and thought I would post some new pics. Please no comments about the wing, I had this car sence it was new. Back in 1993 when the wing was the thing I put it on, I still like the look. There was also a post some time ago about the Sparco seat fitment. All the hardware that you get from them and the seats fit great, I am very pleased with them.

You nothing but posted pictures of your car. You didn't add any technical information about possibly your seat install or whatever. Basically things belongs in the appearance forum. Nice wing.

I like the RS-R exmag II exhaust.

The wing, not so much.

Post some tech, or toad will regulate.

read the rules. This thread has no reason to be in the CRX/EF forum. If you do not edit your post to include some technical information, it will either get moved to the APC forum or locked/deleted.

For example, you can explain the installation process of the wing you have on your car, or what was involved in your big brake upgrade. Things like that.

There is a picture thread stickied at the top of the forum, so you can post your pictures there.

I was kidding. But without the wing and the many Wings West decals, it wouldn't look bad at all. Even if you kept the wing without the stickers, it'd look better.

I could understand if the wing was actually tested for it's aerodynamic performance, but I get the sneaking suspicion that it hasn't. And, that valve cover looks like a fake. But, other than those two things, it's a nice car. You got the body kit to mount without huge gaps, which is a success in itself.
