I look on Craigslist for my area, and the only CRX's I see on there are riced out shitty pieces of crap, that or they are primered with non matching body kits and painted interiors.

STOP MOLESTING THE CRX PEOPLE IT'S ALREADY A SEXY CAR.

well first off theres gaps because,they are molded off of one car..there are never 2 cars that have the exact same fitmeny,chassis' twist and all that..
also because the mold used was old,molds tend to wear out after alot of usage,causing the product to be really off of fitment..
and is it fiberglass or urethane??

The wings west(mugen copy) kit isn't too bad.
The extreme dimensions type m kit is a mugen copy also, that doesn't look to shabby either.

It could be worse like a blitz kit or some other shitty over the top designed kit.

Good luck!

^Yo brah take it with a grain of salt!
You'll get remarks like that all the time here, its the net you gotta have fun with it!

You see, here on Hondaswap were not to fond of bodykits. Because most bodykits go on the car not fitting right, unpainted and un-proffesional or RICEY?

Much aloha's!

Are you trying to install this at home in your garage, or did you take it to a body shop? Most kits actually need to be modified a bit for them to fit right...

Are you sure you got a kit for the CRX and not for the Hatch? I know the hatch bumper has a gap like that if you try to put it on a CRX, maybe they sent you the wrong one? Check the part numbers.

^x2, the 2g crx never had filler panels above the bumpers like the civics did, which would explain such a large gap.
