Default Plastic Pieces Over Wheels

So you know that plastic that covers your front wheels?
Are the 91 si and crx ones interchangeable?

I'd like to know too, my p/s door has been collecting water for a few months now since a deer took out my old fender and liner.

I doubt they are, since the outer fenders are significantly different but the wheel well may be close enough that they could be?

Based upon Honda's parts website it looks like Hatchback & 4 door are the same and CRX are different. Doesn't mean you can't use them though, that'd still need to be checked.

91 Si what? Civic Si? Versus CRX Si?
Check the part numbers?

Some what... I swapped the crx fenders for civic fenders back in the day because I liked the fender flare better as the crx's fenders are much boxer than the civic's... They fit for the most part, but a little shaving might be needed to get the fender liners to fit properly...

So all I did was swap the fenders and front bumpers, and left the original inner fender liners alone and yes for the most part they worked just fine! The only problem I saw was that the civic and crx has different mounting points on the fenders for the wheel well liner... But if you can line up the hole correctly it works fine...

Hope this helps, and just to clarify I have an 88 Crx Si, and I swapped out the original fenders for 88 Civic fenders... The Model made no difference, hopefully this helps!

Later,

Do they even sell them for our EF/ED's anymore?

Well is they don't fit that is what zip ties are for.

Alot of good information.
That aem deal is a good idea but not quite worth 50 bucks to me since I'm going turbo soon. But good idea.

And I found out the pieces the guy had were the wrong ones. He has the ones that go under the bumper.
