I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

[*fs*] SiR CRX parts testing waters

Post by mr.green » September 24, 2005

I'm getting a SiR front clip and already have my fenders painted t match my car and have a carbon hood. I am considering selling the fenders w/ side markers and the steel OEM SiR hood. Any interest in these parts?

So this is your USDM front bodywork up for grabs? Or USDM bodywork and SiR stock hood?

Hey sorry man I didn't end up getting the fenders or hood after all. The shipping was horrible to send the sheet metal in addition to the bumper clip. He left me keep just the side marker lights out of the fenders and he let me take an SiR gauge cluster instead of the hood, both of which fit into the bumper packaging. It saved me a bundle.

On the fitment issue, the fenders are identical, just w/ side markers installed. The hood is different-- it won't line up like it should, but could work i suppose. Your gonna have to mess w/ your t-bar support to get it to align..that or get a JDM one. I'm using a carbon SiR hood and have the t-bar coming to me, plus only using hood pins-- no latch

I am anti latch lol

I don't use them...I come from a group of guys that do certain things to all their cars. I always go strictly pins...ez to open.

When we build cars, we always do certain things to them: no hood latch, no washer nozzles/bottle, no cruise, guttted hatch/trunk, detar the car, remove sound deading, remove back speakers, abbreviate the fenders liner to allow the front bumper to come off easier, etc

Is it a lil strange...sure Will I do it to everycar i consider a project regardless what other people say or think......sure. :roll:

the jdm crx rad support (t-bar) won't be the magic fix for your hood latch issues
