my crx paint/body project (uk) pics inside
hey all.been looking on this site for a while now and thought id put up a topic off how my crx project is doing.
i got it for free but needed alot off work etc too get it road worthy again.let me know what u think.good or bad comentsall welcome
these are pics from the day i got it. not too bad for free. all the work carried out has been my own work with my bro doing the welding part.
pictures off the rust arghh. as u can see it was fairly rusty due to all the salt here and crappy weather. it needed 2 new rear wings and 2 new sills welded in,plus new inner rear wings.
bit more progress made in these pictures
picked up a cheap set off wheels to replace the orange spares lol. they will do for just now till i can afford a decent set
all the repairs are done and the car is all primered up
after several hours off blocking and sanding down i decided to paint it in lamberghini orange pearl. with pearl black roof,tailgate etc.

i also picked up a new air filter for it from a local auto store.sounds quiet good when fitted
close up off the black roof,tailgate done same way. carbon fibre is very expensive here so just tryed make it look similar lol
couldnt decide if i liked it with the bonnet black soi ended up doing it all orange again
