Honda CRX Ballade Sports

Hi,

this little bugger was finished in 2004.

Mostly OOB, I just lowered it a bit and put some custom rims on.
The rear windows are tinted black, to give it some 80s feeling.

Enjoy the pics:

Yes....it has a rollbar ;-)

Thanks for watching. Feel free to comment.

I like the color and the interior looks cool. Are those rims from a late 70s Camaro?

Definetely not my favorite body style CRX (patial to te 88-91s) but man you did an EXCELLENT job on this one! great paint & attention to detail, the background really brought this one together as well. it looks very realistic, you really brought it to life man, two BIG thumbs up!!

Very clean example of this car. The offset on the wheels is wacky for a Civic but otherwise it's perfect.

Very nice! Nice paintjob, and your photography skills own! Keep it up!

I'm surprised how good this CRX looks; especially with late '70's Camaro wheels (Revell/Monogram) :lol:

Talk about a clash of cultures :eek:

Nice model :sunglasse

Hey guys...you are close but you still missed it.

The rims are from a late 80's Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS
I didn't have any other wheels sized to fit the CRX when I built it :uhoh:

Forgot about that kit! But the design is essentially the same; those Camaro wheels looked pretty good on the Monte Carlos of the era. And CRX's. Who would have ever known? :icon16:

That is really cool. I remember long ago I wanted one those because they had just come out with the CRX. I was 16 years old. This brings back memories, but then we didn't know anything about racing them .....yet. Looks real.. I really like what you did with the wheels. Nice addition.

Hi Sebastian,

looks cool, you really hit the look of the 80s :ylsuper:

I don't know how, but I just think those wheels WORK. Great piece.

Sorry, Sebastian but i think those wheels look terrible on a CRX.
Except for that it is as nice and clean as usual. I like it! :bigthumb:

very nice crx. i've been wanting to put one of these together.
