thanks bro.. yea she will look good i hope

and if you want to, you can come over wednesday. Im not going to sgetti to get the CRX ready for the shop, so if you can make it, let me know!

List of what needs to be done still:
1. switch rear bumper covers
2. test fit/align front end
3. rip out the dash of the red one
4. take off any/all ext. molding
5. test fit/install the spoiler on the red hatch
6. CLEAN the red one... no dirt or grease so the its easier on the painter
7. cut in the fenders with some paint

theres prolly some other small things, but thats the main stuff... will have more photos and status tonight.. will keep you all updated

ok.. have an update for everyone:

DIDN'T GET HARDLY ANYTHING DONE LAST NIGHT!

stupid rain :squint: :happysad: i was working on gettting the dash out, climate control, and some of the body molding. The dash is just about ready to come out, and i got the door and fender moldings off.

so im hoping for a nice night tonight, rain free. hopefully i can bust out a lot of work.. will let you know what happens!
