Default What do you think of my CRX? Not finished yet, but damn close.

Well like the title says, I would like to know what you all think of my CRX. It's an 89 DX, with a WW kit and whale tail, lowered with Neuspeed springs, and also has 17" wheels.

The car is almost done. All I have left to do is paint the car Civic Si blue, reupholster my Si seats, and add a carbon fiber hood. Let me know what you think so far.




P.S. If someone gets bored, they could Photoshop my car with the paint and cf hood. But just if you're bored

Actually, I should have mentioned that. I have clear taillights, not altezzas. I personally think the altezzas look like crap on most all cars. I like the clears, though.

Cuong-nutz: I like the color of the second CRX, the first one looks a little purple IMO. Nice pics.

Also, I plan to keep the stock engine in the car until it dies. I rarely race the car, plus I have other plans for my money (CC bills, future house, etc.). I will probably swap in a ZC when the time comes.

i'm totally feeling the two-tone. I think it looks good like that. i'd prefer the spoiler painted in that blue-ish color, though. kind of seems like a sore thumb to me in black.

Very difficult picture to work with and I'm super shitty with Carbon Fiber hoods because I hate them. The lighting in the picture is horrific. I did my best. Enjoy.

Why get a CF hood when you have a stock 89 DX motor?

Just a thought.

OMG, that looks awesome. Great job with the photoshopping. That's exactly what I want to do with my car. Thanks alot for the visual!!

Oh by the way, sorry about the poor lighting quality. As you may or may not know, we in the south have gotten drenched with rain the past month. Although it wasn't raining when I took the pic, it was definitely overcast.
