Hey guys, need some advice, or rather, some opinions. Thought id post here, cause on teh crx resource they would be all goodie good, and back up the cop thats on there, saying to do teh proper thing, but i wasnt some of your guys thoughts.

Ive got a y49 crx, 89, with just liabilaty insurance. Im 18, but its still under my moms bf's insurance. Im getting another crx, 90 crx dx, celestial blue. The deeal is, i have a pretty rough driving record, got alot cleared, but theres still one crazy speeding ticket on there from last year. I dont want to give the insurance company any excuse to take a look at it, and raise my already high rates, which havent changed since i got my car when i was 16.

SOOOOooooo, i just want to put my y49 plates on this one for now, but if i were to be pulled over, what are the chances of the cop realizing its not the same crx. I would give him an excuse that its been painted, but would that be enough. I would even be willing to spray a spot under the carpet yellow, maybe to say i could pull up the carpet and prove it used to be yellow, you know, who paints under the carpet. Is this a stupid idea, i dont want to risk getting my insurance cancelled or raised. THanx.

dont do that ---- man, bad idea, what if u get in a accident, they will no its not the right crx, plug it will look kinda werid to a cop, cops will check vins if they see something that doesnt add up, BAD IDEA

Well, I think the cop will notice since it has to match the registration. You'll get fucked pretty hard for trying to pull a stunt like that. I think you would be better off not having insurance than trying to fake it like that. Isn't that some form of insurance fraud? Don't get me wrong, I'm no angel. I went 4 years without insurance.

yeah, ive never seen a cop come up and look at my vin, but i guess ive never been in a situation where he had to, always been legal. Whats weird, is my insurance hasnt changed since ive gotten all my tickets, but the only ones i havent gotten rid of was my first BS street racing charge, that went with a 39mph over speeding ticket, i was speeding. But got stuck with street racing too. Ive paid a years worth ofo insurace since then, including one just recently. I pay every 6 months. DO you think its a big deal for me to swap insurance, it should lower, seeing im going from an Si to a Dx.

They might not have checked up on you and found your new tickets. It took them a while to find mine, but they did. It's only a matter of time. You might as well swap the insurance over and see what happens.

Seriously, Dont ------- do it!!!! Been there done that! I just did it cause I bought another crx for $200 the night I sold my EF hatch to get home. I put my Black 88 civic tag on my Black 88 crx for the drive home and to get to school the next few days and to my shop where my EK was getting its motorswap finished. First day on my way from school to the shop I get pulled over for "eyeballing" the cop as I drove by (fucked up huh, average clean cut white-boy, felt like a minority lol). I ended up having to go to court with a $280 fine +court costs. Sucked. But I payed $200 for the car, $350 for the incident ($550 total) and sold the rex for $700. So I guess it worked out. Just never drive when youre trying not to get pulled over (ie. Lic. suspended, no ins., drunk, taillight out, etc) cause you probably will.

I put my license plate on my brother's car when I was driving his car (both civic hatchs, mine=88 his=91) because his was more expired than mine is. I lost the sticker, so I'm rolling with expired tags, I put on my brother's "hybrid" license plate frame (onto my car) to cover up the expired tag and I haven't gotten pulled over ever.

ya theres these things called vin numbers that will ---- you over, also the color and model dont match, not a good idea. maybe if they were the same color and you transfered vins.

i have a friend with 2 rexes both red 89 and 90. he has no probs b/c both have vin pulled from the dash and are the same color/model. but diff colors thats pretty sketchy.

its better just to drive without a plate at all. because if you get caught, you only have to deal with one ticket and not 2. trust me
