Homemade I used the home depot garden edging to drop the front lip of the bumper down to match the rest of the rocker panel height, and I still had the homemade fiberglass front lip left over from last year. I screwed it into the garden edging and it has metal rods glassed into it that now attaches to the underside of the radiator support to keep the bumper from flexing...especially since there is no bumper support behind the cover. A front end collision would suck ***.
Actually it is...dropped 1.5" on skunk2 c/o's and koni 5-way adjustables. It's just the huge *** 17" wheels that kill it, but it works out ok. If I put 15"s on it like I want to, I really wouldn't be able to drive it where I live due to body height and clearance. Not to mention my traction absolutely sucks with 15's :P
They are crx fenders...actually the whole nose is crx. I cut the bottoms off the civic fenders and welded them to the bottoms of the crx fenders (because crx's have those plastic cover pieces). Only problem at the time was the tires and wheels...they stuck out too far and where hitting the fenders when I'd make a turn, so I had to space them out a bit and flare the fenders out wider. The corner lights are 89 hatchback lights, just filled in the excess gap at the corner where the crx lights would fit.
There used to be a body line too with the moldings, but due to some small areas of rust it was much easier to weld steel in over the door moldings and such and bondo it smooth. That's also why the body is flared at the rear wheels as well...rust was pretty extensive toward the back.

what motor mounts are you using??

Slo_crx1

Hasport B-series EF swap mounts and Hasport shifter linkage. Normally I would've made or bought cheap ones, but I bought a parts crx with a complete b18 swap and the mounts and linkage for $300.

Pretty much. I kinda felt bad, sorta like I was ripping the kid off especially since he had nothing but bad luck with the car...had some electrical fire by the passenger's side headlight. Later on I found out he offered it to my buddy for $200. :P
