Yeah looking nice and fresh. I do agree with some new wheels though.

Those are fairly new wheels. I ordered some that were a little more squared off and got those instead...too much trouble to send back. 
As for lowering it, I have to go down gravel roads to see patients so I need the clearance...Rally!!!
I realize now that the hood was not completely closed and my interior light was on...like I said "quick pics"
Thanks for the compliments!!!
I am happy with it...for now. |

Wow, how much "body" did it need? I know crx's are prone to rust but damn. I think i'm gonna do my own body work before paint, save a couple bucks.
Looks awesome though. I think you need to go up a size on the sidewalls for the tires.

Body work: lots of small dents and dings and the rear quarter panel rust. The driverside door had been hyperextended. New hood and front bumper. The body shop painted it once and I had them redo it after all of the hidden dents showed up...that was some of the cost.
Tire size: If I go up on the sidewalls, I will rub. It rubs a little now when I hit a dip. |

You guys have to understand...before the paint job those wheels seemed pretty nice, now they don't look near as good. |

clearance? no one needs clearance.
and scrape on aero is gangsta. seriously. nothing is as gangsta as not givin a fuck and having paint chip/flake on the bottom of aero cos ur so gangsta
ur not riding on unicorns holding lollipops and another male significant other......ur driving lol.
good shit. drop it 5 inches. roll/pull the guards if ur rubbin but u should have NO tyre/fender gap, tuck tyres = gangsta
bumpsteer is fun. keeps u awake on those mornings to work
