okay... help clear something up...

[mdnnccivicrcr]

Okay, maybe somebody can clear something up, I and a few other people were under the impression that the CRX and Hatch had compatable fenders, I'm wanting to purchase hatch fenders for my car since I cannot find CRX fenders anywhere around here and I dont wanna spend the high price for Z3 fenders. Anybody know if this is true? can I use hatch fenders on my CRX? I'd also be getting the headlights and corner lights from the same car (89 hatch)

Your not supposed to be able to but I hear people are using them. Go for it.

yea go for it, i got a rex fender on my 89 hatch, no modifying either, people said i'm lying that it wont fit and stuff (not ppl on here but at my school) but i got one and it fit great, maybe i got lucky?? i dunno but try it. i've seen people out here running around with hoods from rex's on there hatchs so they must be the same front-end wise.

i would wait for a couple more responces before deciding, afterall, i wouldnt want to sell you something you could not use

[mdnnccivicrcr]

yeah... I'd hate to drop the money, have you do the work, then me do the work on something that's not gonna work.

[slammed89civic]

true enough, i bought a set of 1 piece headlights when i first got my car, and the guy didnt tell me they were for a sedan, needless to say that sucked

[1PhatCX]

yea i've noticed that when i'm at the j/y the sedan fenders r different and corner lenses r smaller lookin and they dont have the screw holes in the side

[slammed89civic]

only the 88-89 civics, crx's and sedans had the screw holes in the corners, the 90-90 civics crxs and sedans had a arm that screws on to the body under the hood to keep them in place

[1PhatCX]

oh alright, never knew that, guess u learn something new everyday huh? personally i like it without the screw holes, it looks cleaner

I'm pretty sure they won't fit.. They aren't even the same, CRXs have that plastic trim around the bottom, and I belive that non of the CRX fender goes under the corner light, instead that metal peice from under the headlights goes around and under..

I dunno. I'd need to look at two pics side by side.. I'm pretty sure they won't fit.

[mdnnccivicrcr]

actually siz you have a point... the CRX does not have that metal piece under the headlights like the hatch or sedan does... I did a search on www.car-part.com and I found one 40 miles away for $75 and the other even futher for $100 Does anybody have a spare pair or single CRX fender?

do you care it its OEM honda?? because if you dont just get an aftermarket fender they run like 45 bucks brand new!!

[mdnnccivicrcr]

[1990civic]

any auto body parts & supply store!! theres a big difference between OEM, and aftermarket though!!
