Well Harry, today is your lucky day. I sent an email to
http://www.housemanautosport.com about a fibreglass hood they offer. Here is my mail:
Subject: CRX fibreglass hoods
I have a question regarding the 84-87 CRX fibreglass hood your company offers. First, is it interchangable with 84-87 Civic hoods in addition to 84-87 CRX models? Secondly, is it a hood skin requiring pins, or a reinforced unit that uses stock latches?
Thanks,
Chris Yurchik
and the reply:
The CRX hood is a different panel to the Civic hood panel. It is a reinforced skin therefore needs pins and there are no provisions for latches or hinges.

So, in short, they have a hoodskin for $165 for the 1st gen CRX, but me and my 3rd gen Civic are left out in the cold.
