Thanks man.....

My old crx (the good one) has got a new jdm SiR front end. I still have a bunch of new parts left over from before i did the swap with includes a new zc hood, oem front bumper and rebar, and a set of so so kind of cheezy projo headlights, may as well make some use of them. Here's a shot of the extra parts i have sitting in storage since i took them off the other car.

man...that is a great find. Sure it isnt stolen?

What do you mean by "will be completely gone over"? Body work/paint, engine rebuild, or swap, ect?

Looks like a fun project....

Ha ha...its not stolen. I got it from an old custom of mine. I purchased another crx from him about 4 years ago for like $700, drove it for a couple years then sold it for like 4g's, lol

Anyway, for some of the goodies, its a great deal for sure. As for going over the car, yes, i'll tear it down an put it back together again...as well as get bodywork/paint done. I have loads of other parts sitting around from other projects, so it'll be easy to do...stay tuned

great find, it may just be the light but it doesnt look like a tahitian green crx, more like a celestial blue pearl crx. it looks like mine. is the color code B53P?

Not sure what that means.....

As far as the car being dirty, no biggie. One trip on the hiway during the winter season, any car will be dirty like that....hit the car wash, and boom, solved.

If you mean commitment in having so many cars, you may be interested to know that because of the high value of Honda's, i have now been driving free for about 15 years.....sounds pretty good to me

commitment issues because you cant keep a car very long. It's just a joke man. If you like doing that then more power to you. I find myself getting attached to my cars.
