Re: exospeed front end
EG, EK, DC are quick turn around.
The CRX has just been finished and we had to make some adjustments a few times on the kit. Its finally done and we're trying to produce them ASAP. We apologize for the guys waiting on the CRX one but this one has just been alot more work than we expected compared to the other kits. We want to make the kit perfect so you don't have to do any modifications on your own. Unfortunately, it kept getting the final production date pushed back. We are working hard to get them all done ASAP. Fenders are done and we have many of those made already. Its just the bumpers we had to make adjustments on.
Alot of the minor changes were on the top part between the headlights where it mounts to the radiator support. What you see on the picture, we had to chop it off alot of it since the hood wasnt clearing too well. We first had it molded and the customer would have had to trim it off themselves, but we decided to just adjust the mold so they wouldnt need to trim on their own. Also the headlight area needed some adjustments. We put too much material and thought each user would just need to trim as well.
I think the difficult part in doing this CRX kit was testing on different cars. We had put it on 3 different cars and each one had its own issues on fitment. We concluded that the cars are just old and each one had minor tweaks on the front end that made them not perfect. We did finally get a virgin CRX that we were able to test fit again and the changes we made are now final.
Again, for the guys waiting and wanting this kit, we do apologize. We want it real bad ourselves but we want to provide a product that is top notch and something that is worth your money. While each kit will still require some trimming for certain tire sizes, we want to reduce the amount that you have to modify once you get the kit. Our kits are known for its great fitment and we want to continue with that with this kit as well.
