For a CRX front end on a hatch, you need to use CRX fenders, corner lights, and a the bumper. Likewise if you wanted to put a hatch back front end on a CRX you would need the hatch fenders, cornerlights, and the bumper. Also i'm pretty sure you gotta stay between the years on the parts (aka 88-89 or 90-91). Yea the changes are all really small but get a hatchback and a CRX side by side, nose to nose and you'll see what I mean. I'm debating finding all the parts for a stock CRX front end to stick on my car next year. My hatch's bumper hands slightly, also the metal piece between the bumper and the hood is sorta dented, on a CRX bumper its all one peice, flows a little nicer I think. As for the fenders, yea those have rust to. So i'm just gonna fix the whole front end at once with the fenders, cornerlights, and bumpers from a CRX if I can, should take car of my body problems and look interesting to say the least.

the corner lights are interchangeable between the civic and crx as long as you stay 88-89 or 90-91.

actually they are different, even in those years. it's true that 88-89 have screw holes and 90-91 doesn't, but also the crx are more straight down at the rear while the civic are slanted towards the back of the car. they aren't interchangable between crx and civic.

you're totally correct. wow, what a brain cramp. i remember even trying to get the crx corners to fit on my civic when i was fixing it after i rear-ended a benz. not only are the rears different, but the bulbs positions are different as well, so the back of the bulbs on a crx corner won't really fit into the civic fender.

i need a drink...

i need a damn fender too.. i changed my oil and my car was on a ramp, so i pushed it down while my door was still open so i could jump for the E-brake, but i didnt notice the door would hit the garage, somy door snapped and it messed up part of the fender along with it. happend about 2 days ago, i got the replacement door on yesterday and painted it along with the new fender, but the new fender i got is a crappy fit and i dont like it. so i need a new one.
