remove taillights and your golden bro. the hood goes well with the body kit. seriously the rex looks dope. interiors not bad either, but im assuming you dont like the faded tenzo r's.

lose the wing, hood, and tail lights and you'll be good to go. I would probably tint the windows too. I like the body kit.

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of that hood, either, but it's definitely a very good looking car!

Thanks! im thinking keep the body kit, lose the hood and lights. and if you look closely the windows arent glass yet. it used to be an autocross car so its lexan windows. once i put in glass it will be tinted. and then tenzo r seats are faded im ordering new seats in the spring!(:

I would leave the lexan in there. You can still tint it. I like the "racecar" look about it. now, if it wasnt supercharged and/or swapped, then the racecar-ness is just lame. This car can pull it off, I'd leave it.

My plans right now are, first to get the rollcage in, next get my actually glass windows in then tint them. im starting a new job in a few weeks so i should have the money soon for a new hood and tailights. My seats are faded so im selling them and finding some black racing seats. Ill keep you all posted though i have many plans. Next summer i hope to do a b18c swap and maybe go with a turbo this time instead of the supercharger, any ideas??

Can I coin a new term....."Nice Rice".

I actually mean it in a good way. Sure, its not stock, but its not over the top either. I actually like the overall look of the car and the body kit is understated enough to look good.

Ill be interested in seeing it with factory glass back in, as the lexan really detracts from the overall clean look of the car. I also agree with the others...lose the tailights. The tail section of a CRX is such a part of its personality, that it should be one area where the stock pieces should be left alone.

One idea you could do is if the motor you have is are ready build. You can sell the superchager and then turbo your current motor. What taillights are you looking for i may have a 88hf lights and a pair 89 si taillights i have to double check.
