I once priced out fenders for a 91 CRX and for whatever reason, the CRX fenders were 3 times the price of Civic fenders. The guy quoting the cost was also puzzled that they were not the same (bolts positioned differently??)

Are we (CRX owners) being ripped off then?

u can use the civic fenders on a crx if u use the civic bumper and the filler piece that goes under the headlights on the civics may even have to use the hood as well but not sure about the hoods i think they r the same
im thinking of doing the crx front on my civic if not the sir front-end
ps. dont do it the crx front looks so much better then the civic imo

if you mean that you can't interchange the diff. years of fenders due to the lights you are wrong... you know all you have too do is pop the lil white screw inserts out and put the slide inserts in... or vice versa... it takes likes 2 seconds... hehe i love my 89' fenders on my 90 with the 90 lights :grinyes:

CRX bumpers and civic bumpers do not look the same. If you think that, then you do not pay much attention to detail.
if crx and civic bumpers are the same, then 99-00 and 96-98 civic front ends are the same, and the 88-91 USDM and JDM front ends are the same.
they are not the same at all.

they arent the same. the fenders do not have the same part number either.
the corner lights angle differently, the gap between the corner light and the bumper is also a different measurement. the CRX fender has that small sideskirt piece at the bottom and the civic one doesnt.
on the bright side, they do bolt up. all you need to do is search on this site, and you will find at least 4 other threads that discuss it, and most of them either were started by me or have parts where i chime in and list the parts needed and the instructions.
