Default WTB: '88-'91 CRX body panels, etc.

Looking for the rear fenders/quarter panels from an '88-'91 CRX as well as the passenger side door moulding. Rust-free and preferably black.

I'm also in need of a passenger side axle.

Please E-mail me @ LegendLS95@aol.com
Preferably Honda-Tech members with over 100 posts or those with references...

Thanks very much!

You do understand that the CRX is a unibody and the rear quarter panels are PART of the car right? You would have to have someone cut the quarter panels off of a car with a torch and weld them in place on your car...

Ugh. I went to get an estimate for the rust (rear panels) and I was told that unless I could get the rear panels, the body shop would have to get them from a dealer for obviously inflated prices. What should I do? - Thanks for the reply.

Hmm, I say look around for a CRX shell (no motor suspension or interior) and buy that. Heck, you could even swap everything in your car into it! Or you could cut it up.

Try a salvage yard and cut the parts you need. or try and repair it with aluminum and use fiberglass and construch a wide body.... The options are countless. Need to talk to a professional body shop or someone who knows how to work bondo or fiberglass

Thanks guys. I've actually talked to a friend of mine who has some exp. in bodywork. We're going to repair the rear quarters on a weekend with some bondo and aluminum sheets. After that, I'm going to have a local shop do the rust on the lower door panel.
