Default Might return to CRX any 99-00 front pics on one?

Yeah, love the 5G/6G coupes more than anything, and just finished my stint with a B16 5G coupe. But unfortunately, a bitch decided to hit my vehicle with no insurance.

However, I am not going to do the same car in a 2x row, so a coupe is out.

I'm lookin for a CRX Si or Del Sol Si to start with next. Really want the Sol.

If I do get a CRX, I have to have the 94-01 Teg dash (I know this fits, I have a pic of an 88 hatch with DC dash) and a 99-00 front end conversion with Type R lights/grill/lip.

I know someone has done this without adding rice, but every pic I find of this conversion is either molded, or has a funky bodykit, or they mold the headlights onto a normal square CRX front, or all 3. Need a clean pic with OEM ****.

If you are going to screw up a car keep your hands of the EF's. I know you didn't ask for an opinion but you will get one.

If you want a 96+ coupe and you just LOVE it so much then go get one. A CRX with a 92+ civic front end looks like what comes out of my butt every morning. You say you don't want to be rice...if that is the truth then keep it stock or a JDM front end.

I think the SiR hatch front &gt; SiR CRX front.

Does it bolt on w/o mods?

BTW, I think CRX with a newer dash, front, and some DC2 mirrors is like breathing new life into something old. I mean, if you did a CTR front on a rex with DC2 mirrors, and interior, lots of people wouldn't think it's old at all.

IMO, the BODY of the CRX looks current, but the dash, and front look old.

To the guy saying I shold do another coupe, no point. I had the best kind of coupe already, an all power, black interior B16 coupe. If I do an 96-00, it'll be the same thing, just heavier, and with a gray dash. Plus, I want 2 seats.

That is super duper cool...how about this...buy the 96+ coupe...nope sorry people like you deserve the 02 or 03 (whatever the year) the crappy Si I think that would look super with your DC mirrors CTR front end. Hey you could even throw some lanards on the front and a wing on the back. That would be P-I-M-P

Yes it is a total waste of money to add a 99-00 front end on a crx. And yes it will look like *** and yes you will regret it later in life. The only conversion that I will ever do is a 92-95 EG front end on a del sol.


Now that **** is some sweet *** rice. Nice and clean. Looks original.

CINGHAM did that, and he is forever ashamed by his sinful mistakes.

Take a delsol.

A delsol isn't a crx. It is, in fact, not even a car, unless referred to as a "donor car".

years and years ago i saw a crx with DA front and NSX taillights. (1996 or 97)

i was pretty surprised how it looked....

the body work wasnt half-assed, and paint was good..... so the car looked pretty factory.

i wouldnt do that **** to my car, but for a conversion... it looked pretty nice.


EG front on a del sol, i would probably do that if i owned a del sol.

Agreed, that is a good way to save an aging Del Slow from impending doom, but only if I couldn't trade it for a 88-89 CRX.

Anytime anybody says they want to convert a CRX/EF Hatch to anything other than EF8/EF9 it makes me want to cry, there goes another opportunity for style and fun to drive factor down the drain. The CRX is one of the most unique vehicles out there that anybody has ever designed that was so successful at just being a great daily driver and a wicked track monster. I am partial though, I prefer the 4th gen Civics and 2nd gen CRXs (best model designs Honda ever had, IMO) over almost any other "H" out there, save maybe an S2000 or the new 06 Si Civic (I would trade my wife for one of those ).
