Default my 1.5x Mugens and metal polishing 10-9-10

Not really a project as such but got a few bits recently

wind deflectors, set me back about €111, quick delivery from that ebay guy that the lads recommended. Great seller!


JDM rear window decal from Richard (Mr Kurtz) on CRX-UK. again highly recommended, came to about €10 delivered within days.


Here im just flashing my tubes. Took em apart to take out sound deadening someone had put there.




Wind deflectors fitted




Decal fitted

And this is the look I really want for my CRX, Clean, Original, JDM.

Looks great James. Was think about buying one of those stickers myself, think I will now, looks good.

Only thing though, was that sound deadening not meant to be in the tubes? Must dig out mine.

Im no sound expert like the djs floating around here [] but I always thought that would create a better bass sound?

looking good , not into the decals myself , but its amazing the difference the wind deflectors make to the styling , sound deadening in the tubes dont sound right to me , people do put that foam cloth stuff they use to stuff toy dolls etc with, is meant to help kill vibration in the sub , might be what its in there for .cheers Brian

yes but at the end of the day they are ordinary speakers and not powered subs, and the tubes just take any sound loss from behind the speaker and reverberate the lower frequencys back. I think the sound deadening was put in when someone had changed the original speakers. Im not into decals anymore but I do like the original Honda stuff and thats how I want my crx to be. Now I need to lower it.....
