get full bodykits from jet speed or carmate... they look a lot better afterwards but u'll b lookin at big money in doing so..:D
bodykit...far out man...that to much..ahaha...for a CR-V....that would set me back like 2 or 3 thousand man..
muffler tip, side-steps (if u don't have), mud flap, fog lights...
how much are fog lights.!?!...and i looked at my car there isnt really a spot for the front bumper...
a bash plate looks great on a cr-v. some factory mesh inserts.
Have a look at http://www.shamsulauto.com/honda.htm
I got a heap of accessories for my 02 CRV from them. They ship to Australia. They got a bit of stuff for the 1st Gen CRV too.
there is always a gap in the bumper...u just have to shop around for a pair of foglight that will fit....around $50 to $100....
thanx...do u know where i can purchase fog-lights or even a CF bonnet..!?
hey there L-plates,
it's great to see someone else with a first gen CRV here
check out some of the american sites man they go hard over their CRVs
what i've been trying to get are black headlight housings, you can find them on eBay but they don't ship over here, however, if you're really keen, find some spares at maybe pick n' payless and DIY
otherwise stick to maybe getting a rear spoiler. as for the fog lights, yeah they were factory spec for the 99 sports models onward, if you do get another bumper, it will be body-coloured though, and your rear bumper won't.
let us know if you find anything good though
cheers
um...for a typical fog-light, go to Autobarn or Supercheap auto... most mod shop has more jap-style lights but if u r stressing where to fit the lights it will be good to have more choices..For a CF bonnet..I am pretty sure there's none for RD1 with B20B or Z....have to be custom made...depends on the quality and style of it (dodgy fibre glass, vent)...it will be $1500+.....after all RD1 has a big bonnet..Quote:
