Default My Mostly Stock HF

So I thought that since I post questions about my rex, why not show it right? These are the first pictures i've ever taken of my CRX. Got it for $1500 with 175K Miles from a neighbor. Thought it was a pretty good deal.
Enjoy! :D

Nice CRX...man you stole it from that neighbor! I've seen CRX HF's listed as much as $4950!!!

I used to have a red CRX HF, a 1991. When I bought it the paint was totally oxidized so had no shine. I used some good old elbow grease and made it shine. Here's some pics for you to get some idea what a little bit of work will get you.

The products I used were:
Wash: Regular car wash stuff
Rubbing Compound (light): Meguiars Mirror Glaze Fine Cut Cleaner
Rubbing Compound (professional): 3M Pefect-It II Rubbing Compound Professional Formula
Polish: Meguiars Mirror Glaze Professional Show Car Glaze
Wax:Turtle Wax Super Hard Shell Car Wax

That and a lot of terry cloth towels + elbow grease produced a nice shine to the paint.

I wouldn't do anything to hurt gas mileage. Those things are the next best things to mopeds. Just keep it clean.
