Paint the hub caps? i never seen that before i dont think... lol

well my tip is really small, and is getting rusty. i think a lilttle bigger one would look tight. dont u think?

And for the drop... thats kinda expensive isint it? i dont got the right tools to do it myself i dont think... (live in an apartment)
but yeah i agree a drop always looks good.

anybody think FOG LIGHTS would look iight?
i saw some at the store lol. they look like they would look pretty cool.

thanks 4 the good ideas!

Since doing engine work is pretty much out of the question, why don't you work on the body/interior?

http://www.andysautosport.com/honda_parts.html

They provide a lot of nice body kits and other goodies for Honda's.

get your interior reupholstered in the color you want? I'd totally go for all black with a red trim

Good luck with your car!

oh thats a cool website thanks Hackingjack, looks useful.

well the interior is in i would say almost perfect condition. nothings stained, missing, or anything. exept the steering wheel is burned a lil from the top from the sun.

how much are the lips?

A cold air intake wont do much if i were to get one?

DO NOT Get foglights from autozone. order OEM/OEM Style Foglights.... Dont get a body kit they are ugly and expensive....

Hamorhead has a CRX and his fogs are different than yours......

That's right! Nothing wrong with rocking fresh hubcaps on a slammed car. Looks sexy IMO.

OP, did you tell us how much you have to spend on the car? I don't remember reading that yet. My list for you (in order): springs struts for a mild 1.5"-1.8" drop, lip kit, small sound system (no more oem speakers, amp the new ones, get a nice head unit), and rock out with the optional audio console (google it if you don't know what it looks like) & amber corners.
