here is a project i've been holding off on for a bit...it used to be tamiya brilliant blue TS-44... gone through a partial stripping... primer awaits...
not sure on a colour yet...thinking on going OEM, but i also want it to keep it's youth... final rims and paint application will tell the story... :dunno: yet..suggestions?!?

Paint it purple!

Nice panel lines!!! just kidding

Your Civic looks tight with those rims, very cool.
I forgot what OEM (at least USDM) colors were offered, but I always liked the bright red w/black lower body trim.
Man it just looks sick with those rims!!!

This reminds me of Civic running around town here...it has the ITR 5-lug conversion and a B18c, even has a hydraulic clutch!

looks cool, and i agree, purple could turn out really good

a burnt orange

Here is mine in metallic purple:

Burnt orange, for sure. Maybe with some bronze rims?

You read my mind!

this is a great car! i like the crxs! suck awsome little cars. i am bulding the same fujimi kit. but i did a full custom body kit

Hmm interesting ideas... i liked the burnt orange possibility, but then Carrera RS's picture made me remember how good the CRX looked with black two tone paint job....so i think i'll be going with that...

ps: i dont' like purple cars...too fruity...

my crx is going to be done in a coat of metalic orange. Maxse ou shud do JDM crx, burnt grey with mugen decals and mugen body kit.

i say shave everything and paint it wild! lower the stance a little with those wheels painted silver! yea thats my idea!lol good luck!

SCCA Improved Touring, GT4, and GT3 cars respectively. Definitely much more interesting than simply hanging a bunch of pointless fiberglass off the sides of a Honda.

those are some pretty creative ideas...thanks for the imput.. but i think i'll keep it clean...if you've seen my previous builds i like the "jdm" look with some north american street racing culture into it... so i think this one is going to go black on black....rims still undecided..
here's the body after the primer..

Great choice of colors. Another input... how about putting in red Recaros, Type R style. :icon16:
