Default 91 Alpine White CR-X Si

I know there are a lot of CR-X fans on this forum since a lot of you guys use to have one. Thought i'd share with you pics of this super clean CR-X. JDM backseats ftw!

Hope you enjoy the pics and the article!

All the mechanical mods are impressive, but the mismatching color scheme, window visor and decals make it look like one of the run-of-the-mill showboat junkers in the hood. At least that would have been my first impression...

This thread should probably go to the Gallery Forum given the target audience.

The thing is that there are so many CRX junkers out there w/ mismatching bodycolor parts (usually from "junk" parts from other CRX) that it would have been more refreshing to see a fresh single-bodycolor CRX.

Anyway, the white/black color scheme itself is fine. It only looks bad when combined with the gold'ish rims (nice wheels, but color doesn't go with b/w bodycolor) and the ghetto signature decal and window visor.

It has always been my goal to find a clean, rust-free CRX to build on myself. Sadly that's hard to come by as those that are for sale are usually used-and-put-away-wet and/or defaced w/ poorly fitted and ugly bodykits. Aside from the few aforemenioned eye sores, this CRX is put together really well.

I agree. When I decided to build mine I wanted the outside to look as stock as possible, I even hesitated painting the bottom black sections red because I figured if I kept them OEM black it would look more stock. And for the record, I'm never giving mine up!




TunerTalk, thanks for the post!

Door visors were actually a JDM option bro...

Mismatching color scheme? Black/White/Gold-Bronze...

There are s2k owners here that have that...
