Finally some pics.. 1987 Widebody CRX
 
Finally got them off my laptop onto my computer... jus tnote these were taken at night, and I was pissed cause I just popped a tire...

[Look at page 99 of this month's Super Street, tell me if you recognize anything... ;) ]

By the way in the spring my car will be getting repainted... Just curious should I stay silver, go black or go white? It will be complimented with a CF hood :D

Thanks guys

Tell me whatchu think...
More pictures to come after paint job, and "power upgrade" :D

I would never think of doing something like that, but it doesn't look bad. It kinda reminds me of one of those crazy citroen rally cars. lol. It's cool. How much bondo is in those fenders? ::crosses fingers:: :D

I was gonna say, that wheel and tire combo doesn't look right with the car anymore. Wider tires and wheels will be great on that car though. Put that widebody kit to actual use. ;) Looks pretty good though. I think black would look pretty badass on it.

Just a question man... What is rice about my car...
Mugen body kits are some of the only kits wind tunnel tested...

now you need real mugen wheels. that car, even though it is screaming flame me, has alot of potential. if you put rice parts like tenzo r wheels and ---- like that its going to kill it. if you go the all mugen route you will have my respect, and the respect of other jdm enthusiasts. I love seeing all mugened out cars even if they arent that pretty looking.

to each his own....
mugen tested that in a wind tunnel?..i never thought wide fenders would be very good in that respect. it does look well executed, so props to you.

You need spacers or like 10" wide tires on that beast so you can justify that width.


****waitafuckinsecond are those led squirters on your car.. I gotta flame that..

i'm speechless :-\ my definition of rice is spending money on the extreme appearance of your car (body kits, rims over 16", racing seats, dual exhaust, etc.), before your engine has had all possible work done already. basically, if youre spending all that money on the appearance of your car and don't have a built and boosted engine, it's rice to me. but like everyone else said, to each his own.

I gues you could look at it like that.. but the engine is setting in my garage... My car got the work done while I was on vacation, otherwise it would not be done yet...
The engine will be goin in when the weather warms up, so i guess that is sort of rice, but not by choice.

as long as you can back up the looks of your car, i don't consider it rice, what's rice to me, is spending all that money on the appearance and none on the engine, but like i said, if you've got a strong engine to back it up, it's all good ;D
