88-89 crx tail lights won't have a dark outline around the tail lights,like the 90-91 tail lights do.

A little rough, but nothing some cleaning and a little work cant fix. deffinately a nice find, should clean up very nicely. I'm actually kinda jealious, blade silver is probably my favorite color on a CRX. lol I have the same wheels, mine are poweder coated white though. but overall good find.

Great buy! I picked up an 89 Blade Silver Metallic CRX Si just like yours last year. They are fun little cars so you will have a great time working on this car in the near future. Good luck with things and take your time!

Here is mine:

The wing is a special edition wing but also the Si-R wing. They're really the same.

I think only the 90-91's came with rear discs.I have 91 Si and a 88 Si.The 88 has rear drums and 91 has discs.

and lol The color is not white! It's blade silver.
