Hey Paul, were these the wind deflectors you mentioned?

I can't believe I got a brand new OEM Honda pair a few years back for regular price.

p.s. I'm back in a cr-x. Picked up a fairly tatty 1.5x glassroof yesterday

Yea James that's them, his actual website is justdriveshop.com pretty good to deal with.

It's mad yea we were getting new Honda ones for €115 before, the ones he makes though are definitely better quality though so hopefully don't break so easily

Also need to get the finger out and find a decent person / bodyshop that will a) do a thorough job of prepping and undersealing the car and b) give it a good full respray. If anyone knows of anyone who is good and are happy to take on a CRX, let me know (spoke to two people who around these parts and they don't want to go near it unfortunately

)

I'd give you the details of the guy who is painting my CRX, but I don't think he ever wants to see another one! Gabor Auto in Glasnevin did a very good job on my E30 recently - definitely worth a shout.

Was there good detail in the work by Gabor? If you don't mind, could you pm me on how much they charged ya for the e30 and what exactly was done i.e. windows out, engine out etc...

Gabor's paintwork is excellent - and he's as detailed as you want him to be really. I didn't want the engine bay done on the E30 - car was too complete to start stripping it down again. All glass came out - small bit of welding and the body kit needed a bit of work.

The guy who is painting my CRX is out on the Ashbourne road. He is really into his older stuff - he collects old Bluebirds. His work looks excellent so far - quite a lot more welding than expected too. Think my car might have put him off CRX's for life

Nice looking work on the e30. Will give them a shout over the coming weeks and gauge interest / quote for the CRX.

What's the fella name that's working on your CRX currently? Seeing as he's a bluebird collector, I've an old nissan sunny ZX which needs a respray also, so he might be interested in taking it on as a project.

His name is Daniel McGann - hes well worth having a chat with. I know he has a few projects in there that he's working on, so if yours aren't urgent then the timing might suit. His number is 087 277 7788

I have a CR-X turning vintage next week so going to be working on it getting it back running right and on the road. Service, plugs and distributor clean up and see how it is running then and have a clicking CV joint that I'll have to replace

I didn't do anything today but thanks to C-Rex I finally got my hands on these earlier:

C-Rex · #39 12-21-2020, 09:34 AM

That CR-X needed them seats for years, will be great to finally see them in it.

Cuchullain1 · #40 01-17-2021, 09:15 AM

Finally got these all cleaned up and put in. Have more goodies on route thanks to Paul but they could take a while...
