Nooooooooooooooooo! Not the oem fenders! 😭
Looks dope tho!
I debated it for a while, then I walked into the backyard and looked at the 91 and said, let's do this. The 90 will never be as clean as the 91. 😁
Why not sacrifice a cheap set of aftermarket wings/ fenders
I didn't feel the need to. I wanted to have fun with it. I'm not some OEM purist who goes all crazy about OEM looks/parts. I don't need 2 hatch Si's that look identical, that's boring as hell for me.
Perfect looking Track Car... Clean work man 💪
Thanks buddy!
Hurts my soul to see you cutting perfectly good fenders like that!
Lol, I'm sure a handful of people were hurt today.
Probably the best looking civic generation ever.
Agree
It looks fantastic! Absolutely love all the aero and it’s really looks the part of a track car
Can't wait to see the track footage of this car flying by or in it as well. You really nailed the body flow on it. Simple (somewhat) and Clean AF!
I hope my footage turns out well!
i love that you really take your time to do everything the right way. awesome build man, really enjoy your videos
Appreciate that!!
All the new videos this year are killer!
Much appreciated for that! Wss hoping I'd get some good stuff for this car this year!
Man that makes it look super aggressive. I love it! It will show in your times, look forward to that! I love that moment of "well no going back."
Lmao, there really wasn't. Kinda funny I said it out loud, probably had to help relieve some of my anxiety.
Love it. Turned out great. It was worth the sacrifice of the fenders
👍😀
Here in Finland with all our snow and road salt, I would've had to take extra care to rustproof all the holes and edges or those flares would fall off in a couple of years...but I guess in Texas that isn't really such a big issue! :D But it may still be wise to apply some type of paint or coating on them to ensure longevity. Those flares definitely look the part though, nice job.
Thanks! I might go back in there and add some paint to the holes. But you're right, I live in the desert and we don't ever see road salts or snow and the rain doesn't really affect us because it's not humid where I live so it all dries up within a day.
OMG, your a mad man lol! For real though. Simple engineering. That car is going to STICK! I think it looks great. Its a fun track car serving its purpose. Well done👍
Appreciate it, the car felt great. Hoping to revive it again soon.
Function and Form...great job!! Looks awesome
Thanks buddy!!
No student is ever gonna teach a master!!!
Lol
That came out awesome. Your track car is looking amazing, I’m looking forward to seeing more track footage. The progress you’ve made on this car is insane. Keep up that good quality work bro 🙌🏽
Track videos next weekend!!
Probably the best fender flare video I’ve seen !! Looks great man!
Thanks man! There was no going back, it was nerve wracking but I'm happy with it!
At first I thought you had lost your mind... but the end product was a home run 👍🏻
I finally starting to maybe do my Tacoma and your videos have given me good ideas. Love the work you do and how you do it and the cheap diy materials.
looks great! that's what I run in front. Keep an eye on the 949 for cracks. Fenders turned out awesome. Yeah thats a good height you can go to track and adjust it and see what rubs
Thanks man! These are Gen4's so hopefully no cracks but I'll definitely be wary of always checking them for damage.
The flares turned out good. That's a lot of rubber under the front of a CRX. I can't even imagine the insane amount of grip!
I'm excited to drive the shit out of it!!
Wow what a transformation! New wheels are siiiiick.. the black and white Storm trooper/panda/penguin is now complete (unless cf hood?). Can't wait to hear how the new tires perform at the track 🐼 🐧 🏁
Hood soon, need to sand it down and re-clear it or throw vinyl on top of it.
Nice setup dude! She looks awesome!
Always love ur videos! Makes me miss my sedan
Man It can out way better then I expected. You really got that crx looking good. But those oem fenders!!
Looking forward to seeing the results of the mods you've done at the track!
Hey man clean setup. I’ll be adding flares to my accord as well!
👍
This thing looks soo sick, I had to rewatch this video again 😁 I really hope you keep full interior in this track car. Dedicated track car with full aero, & full interior = 👌🏽
I do, the only thing I remove is the rear seats and cargo stuff because I carry all my tools/wheels/etc to the track in the car.
The car looks realllllly good. Well done.
Thanks!
Looks awesome. Really like the overall body and style. Amazing job!
Believe me v happy to find ur channel bcz i have same car 89 civic but is sedan and i like ur work . . .
Thank you, and welcome!!
Can't wait to see that on track!
I can't wait to drive it hard!
Bigger fender flares in the back for a wider track width and some tracklife fender cutouts would be sick! Loving the progress so far!
I might do something wider in the distant future. Good suggestions for sure!
Dude that thing looks way more aggressive Nice!
A Dremil with the reinforced cut-off wheels is real handy for small trimming and can handle whatever material. - Glad you did the spats. The wider tires make for even more frontal area and turbulence so they will help aero considerably. Some heat-gun massage therapy on the flares and spats will help get a cleaner look and smoother air transition. Extend the spat up to cover the backside of the flares. Use a long straight-edge laid across the wheel/tire to get a better idea on where to trim the spat for the right coverage without too much overhang. You'll be tracing the line on the backside of the spat. You can also heat-gun a 90 degree bend on the bottom so you can mount it to the splitter. Better than mounting screws into the end of the splitter where the ply makes it weak. You'd much rather have to redo the spats versus the splitter since they are cheap and easy to do/re-do but the splitter much less so. Alternatively, a small piece of angle aluminum (like you used on the air dam) can mate the two and attach to the strong dimension of the ply (through not in the end of). Rear spats will help too. -
Anyways, looking good! Hacking/radiusing the lower rear of the fenders to evacuate wheel well air next! Never looks great but works well. Trade-offs, haha. - The L shaped garage door seal/trim I mentioned previously for some quick side skirts will help and wont detract from the look you have going. They will make your diffuser much more effective since they will keep underside air flowing front to rear. They also lower overall under car pressure which is always good. - Keep it up!
Wow, that does look good. And to be so simple.
Appreciate it, glad you dig it!
Looks good, at least you got some spare fenders
It’s not that bad. I’ve always kinda like fender flares on civic hatch. 👍🏻
Love it man!! That car has come a long way! Love the videos!
i was thinking of doing the front fenders using some imperfect junk yard fenders since my original ones still have vin tags and are clean
That'd be smart. It took me about 2 hours to get started on this. I kept going back and forth and finally said "let's do this!".
Looks sick, rear defuser and sideskirts to top it off ✊🏽
Canongang look closely. He’s got a rear defuser on there. I saw your comment and was about to say the same till I saw it on there
SO SICK!! Although, I personally would of cut up those other gray fenders you mentioned instead. To each their own. Still looks amazing and true DIY.
I didn't want the gray on there. I'm weird, I wanted my panda look.
Nice I have them in silver for my crx now. I just picked up a another set in charcoal. Nice looking wheel for a great price. I think they look meaner with the center caps off.
I've always been a fan, and they are great for abuse since not too expensive!
Looks awesome!!! Loving the new aggressive style
Now you have me thinking about 245s on the front... Look forward to seeing next week's videos of our runs together!
You should try it. Definitely a front sway bar for the track here. It'll keep you out of the dirt!
@@GarageBuiltHondas I don't know if the sway bar would have helped lol
Lmao, that was awesome!
We have an event next Saturday the 20th, you should join! Going CW this time! 👍😎
@@GarageBuiltHondas I'm still recovering from the last drive down there lol
Looks awesome! Gets me motivated to work on my own project!! 👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome, that's what I'm talking about!
Looks pretty good
Dude that thing looks badass. Love it.
Great work dude looking better every time
That looks awesome i really like it i wanna get a set for my civic thanks for the video
Looks gangster, just need some canards now 😉
That word perfectly describes it!
Looks super good 👍
👍
Looks great!
Looks Sick! Maybe throw some rubber weather strip over the cut fender edge just in case? Cars looks really mean, good luck at the track 🤙🏼⚡️
That's a good idea! Thanks for the suggestion!
Garage Built Hondas no worries, you can also use rubber hose and split it down the seam and then use whatever flexible adhesive of choice, quick, cheap and easy!
Looks pretty badass ! Should invest in a Dremel as well to sand down or cut anything you need to perfection ! Although your cuts look really good without one!
I have one but realize I love my jigsaw and the grinder. I think I break a lot of cutting discs on the Dremel and just got annoyed.
Garage Built Hondas ohh okay , I guess to each their own, you got some clean cuts !
I try to keep them clean, I'm a little OCD about some things do that can really help sometimes.
I do not normally like this. Although, you are using it for a true purpose which is for track. Great job.I do hate that you cut those good fenders though. I am here looking for some flawless crx fenders, but they are non existent.
great job btw! Now thick ass tires can fit
I hear ya buddy, so many people wouldn't have done it. I'm sure I'll come across another set of fenders pretty easily too. EF parts always come my way first in my area. 👍
SPOILER ALERT!
He just sells the 90 si and gets a sick looking track car at the end! lol
Dude, car looks completely different, nice job!
Haha, nice!
Love the look, really looking like a time attack car.
It's a good thing that it is! 😁
Dammm that looks so dope 🔥 I just might bite your style lol good job so far on the build 👍🏽
Thank you
👍
Nice! I miss my 90 hatch so bad.
Keep up the great work. 👍🏻
16:57 I can daily drive one of this all day!, the best thing is all body gaps tight
I love the look! Freakin aggressive!
You install spacer and wide tire to show it, then you install fender to hide those... what a trip🤣🤣
Track rules. The wheel/tire cannot stick out farther than the edge of the fender, thus flares were needed.
Damn man, it looks so sick!
Cant wait to see this ef in action
nice work
Putting El Paso in the map 💪🏼
Doing my best to have some fun and help out anyone interested in watching! 🙏
Looks great man. Love everything you've done to it!
Thanks felix
Looks sick on the 949s
Nice with the wider Wheels in the front will help a lot when understeer
Nice top job looks good for track
Ahhh man! It looks so aggressive and don't mind what others I saying I did the same to my wagon fenders 😂
Cut-Fender-Crew right here! 🙏
Looks good. Built to drive!!!
The flares look good man and if you want to ever sell those 949 wheels I’ll take them lol! I love the wheel and tire set up as well.👌
Thanks buddy, you'll be the first to know!
Garage Built Hondas hell yes! They would be perfect for the del sol that’s why!
Looks good
You should install ek side skirts or make some. Great work!
I do wanna get something on here!!
I like it. I personally would have used the larger flair and widened the stance a bit more. Well done.
I might try them eventually. Wanted to see how this fit. Don't gotta worry about the anxiety of cutting my fenders again though. Lol
Looks so fucking good man!!!!
Hell yeah, right?!!
Sick dude, cant wait to see if the little extra meat helps on the times 💪🏻
Dude, me too!!
It does look good.nice work. 👍
Car is looking track af
Mission accomplished! 🏁
Not to be negative but it looks like it would end up being in the same spot as the stock fender...I'll keep watching. Overall it looks great, hopefully you got the coverage you needed. 🍺
👍
Looks good! But I ain’t gonna lie, that hurt a little bit to watch. I’m not an OEM purist either, but I know you can’t get them anymore either (OEM). Oh well you do you!
Lol, right. Might as well enjoy it while I can!
Loving the track look 👌
It looks nice ! 😋
Reminds me of the Pikes Peak Escudo from GT2 days. 😁😁
That's a compliment??
So cool 👍
It does look bad ass man what a blast 💪
Love it !!
My ocd wonders if the splitter is the exact same width as the tires now. I had my reservations at the start, but it looks alright in the end. I've got a winter project for you. That splitter adds a decent amount of weight. Use it as a mold during the off season to make a clone out of fiberglass or carbon.
looks like a hillclimb car. cool. plexi glass/lexan/polycarbanate rear side windows up next?
Looks great man!
love the new look...
I never would have cut that fender with the wheel still on! Im too disaster prone hahaha
Track car looks amazing! Want to do my 91 hatch just like yours!
Fly as a falcon bro
Lol, I figured track wheels are gonna take some damage so it was ok. I hear ya though, so many times I've dented or scratched or nicked something that's brand new. 😕
Looks SWEET!!
Function First..nice work ✊🏽
Yep. Love it
Hey , your car looks amazing, I have one like yours which I'm running it , how did you make the front LIP of your car?
ruclips.net/video/oVZz4Xa4it0/видео.htmlsi=UV889CSTcRPBbQrd
Looks clean af 👍
You should put some side skirts..! Would look nice and could possibly help on the air..!! Your car looks even better every time ..! Great work . #GarageBuiltHondas👍🏼
I'm trying, hoping to get or make something soon!
@@GarageBuiltHondas What ever you ended making or getting on your car, I bet it will be nice, can't wait .. !!
Thanks for the nice comment homie!
