Not to hijack the thread or anything, but does anyone have them for 88-91 CRX's as well? or is the MB fiberglass the only other option?

I'm in need of some doors as well

again , KENS DOES NOT MAKE ANYTHING CARBON FIBER OR FIBERGLASS.

Frank makes the stuff, Ken just might from time to time sell it.
GO direct to the source.

I found EG carbon doors on this website but they look more show that race. I've got some of their CF parts on my street car and they make nice ****.

we have carbon doors for the following hondas. We can build them to your requirements. If you are full time drag then we can get them into the 3 lb range for each door. All doors have full frames also, no need to make the gay tube across the top to hold the lexan. Plus it will keep air from getting in the door opening.

5th - 7th gen civics
3rd gen integra
88-91 crx

we also have hoods, deck lids, hatch covers, sunroof fillers, and front ends for nearly all hondas from 88 up including RSX.

I've got a set of the doors for the CRX from Franks... full fiberglass, so they weigh in at a mighty 10lbs compared to those 3lb ones he's talking about, but the construction is excellent... Maybe one day i'll get a set done in CF, but i'm extremely happy with the fiberglass

By the way, with the full frame, not only do you not have to have that bar holding the lexan, but it also means that you don't really have to have that little latch in the upper corner of the door... these are stiff enough that you could get by without it

sounds good to me! 3 lbs! do they come with shaved moulding or factory? or is that under the "We can build them to your requirements."? is it even possible to use factory latch and handles?
