my old car


BLACK is best - Not even a question, I can assure you that the outcome will be amazing if you go to black.







also, might I be so bold as to suggest you ditch the rear lip and rock the stock rear bumper with black lower area.



I made the change and I was 20000% happier with the look

The red looks clean,

but I think the black skirts will compliment the other black items on your car.

Paint them red and also paint your front lip. It will look more clean and sleek that way.


Regardless that CRX is hot fire.

Flat black because it matches the hood. Red just looks kinda off unless the whole car was red, then it would be..... ****.

I'm glad I could give you a couple images to let you visualize the look, when I was in your position I did the photoshop job as well and I would have had a much easier time making the decision with some good clear images.

Whatever you decide, you've done a great job so far. It's going to be very hard to ruin the look at this point, any color choice will look great.

I've moved onto a new white shell with all the same parts/mods.
It's kinda sad that I lost my red one but the fresh new white shell is doing a fine job filling the void.

nah. black is better looking. Also its the stock config. Stock color config just always seems to flow better. Oh wait thats because it was designed that way.
