Had to deliver a gearbox to a small garage today and this is what was parked outside his shop.

There was even a second identical E-Type parked nearby but I didn’t take a photo sadly.

I love the crx.  That exhaust tip?  Not so much.

Rice is international

Why would someone import a New Edge?

Yep, that one is definitely rice. Note the fartcan and J.C. Whitney-grade spoiler.

They are doing New Edge right; spoiler delete and fake brake vent delete.

Pretty sure that’s a factory CRX SI Spoiler:

There’s definitely a riced out Mustang sitting next to it though, that thing is horrid.

Either an ex-USAF car that’s been registered here or an oridnary import.

Nope, that is absolutely not factory.

Factory SiR:

Factory Si:

And later SiR:

NOTE CHMS . No CHM S in the hatch , wrong spoiler. Also note how it is longer and follows up the curve further.

Not pictured, the lip spoiler (far more common.) 

The market is absolutely rife with scammers trying to pass cheap knockoffs as the real deal as well. That specific spoiler only happened on the SiR and only in Japan.

Yes, making good cars stupid is international.

Looks identical to the later SiR spoiler going by that pic. Honestly, that CRX is less of an abomination than that Mustang...

Just because it looks like it doesn’t mean it is. There’s this thing called ‘counterfeiting.’

It’s kind of a small problem in the Honda market.

It actually is a factory ee8 B16 VTEC spoiler on there (found on numerous ee8's in Euroland).
