Default My new :to me: 91 CRX SI *update*

i know its a bit ricey. I know i have to take off the wing. I know i have to take off the graphics. I know i have really BEAT up rims.

i bought this car to make it nice not rice... I SAVED A HONDA DAMIT!

7.15.03 1:00pm ish.

took the pics that you know see and by the time the sun has gone down the rice will be eliminated.

I plan to make this a very nice car with no decals and some better wheels when $$$$ allows. they are 92 GSR wheels though so thats kinda cool. too bad they are beat.

car has a B16a swap with type r cams and a zydne ecu. some others too, but i don't want to list it all.

ENJOY!

please let me know you think ... and what you would do to it. thanks









i think over all this is a great look car... just those dam decals. i don't like body kits either, but it just looks nice.

once the wing is off i'll take the bag off my head when i drive it.

the "mugen" wings west kit is actually nice as well. just asyou said, lose the wing and stickers, acquire nice wheels and you're set. the paint seems to be in good condition as well.

Dude you can easily make that look nice, just do as you said(with the wing and graphics) and pick up some nice rims and your good to go. Plus you already got a great motor.

I don't like that color in general, but for some reason, on CRX's, I love it, think it looks really clean on that bodystyle. Good luck with the new ride

Along with removing the wing and graphics, I say go with a different color. I'm getting sick looking at that one. But it's got quite a bit of potential.

Re read the first post, he bought this car last night , he got to my house with it at 1130 pm. If he were to pull the wing off he would have 8 holes in the deck lid(dont ask).

We will strip this bitch on sat, wing , stickers and motor( time for a refresh).

***UPDATE***

Thanks for the comments. I have since taken off the stickers and im sorry to say i have not had the time nor tools :with me at least: to take that dam wing off. the stickers have been removed. i also found out the body kit was not primed correctly :looks like a Maaco job: so while peeling the Mugen Racing sticker it also removed some paint so that sucks, but its only a 1" by 1" spot...fixable.

TOMARROW I WILL TAKE THE WING OFF ! will be making special time to take it off. I will also have to remove and replace the speedo cable and cluster if i can find one tomarrow at a junk yard. Dam kid painted the needles red and added a not working all the time reverse indiglo :quiver: white guage face. I'm replacing the whole cluster because he also decided to paint the cluster cover thingy.

just so you know....

CRXFORUM....

Yes i have JDM tails for it already, sad part is they don't have the CRX VTEC sticker on them... but they are the JDMs...i did my homework...

Tbone....

i still love you man! want me to go shopping for you next car? HAHAHAHAA

Everyone....

I will have new pics available tomarrow so come back here and see what she looks like now. so hot... i think i'll wait to have the wing off too that way you can all thank me and i won't get any hate posts about taking it off

How about a game...

Just wondering what do all of you think i paid for the car. the closest guess without going over will get a nice white "R" emblem. from the back of my ride.
Tbone you can't play you already know
